## Summary

The Centre for Process Innovation Limited, a body governed by public law, based in Redcar, UK, has completed a contract award procedure without prior publication for the procurement of Chromatography modelling software titled "2850-S - GoSilico Software." The tender falls under the Research and Development and Technology Development categories. The buying organisation chose Cytiva's GoSilico software due to its versatility in modelling chromatography components, offering advantages over competitors. The contract worth £65,000 GBP was signed on 31st March 2023, with procurement focusing on goods.

This procurement process led by the Centre for Process Innovation Limited aims to enhance scientific research through technology development by leveraging Cytiva's modelling software. Businesses in the scientific research and technology development sectors that provide goods related to chromatography and scientific modelling are well-suited to compete. The unique features of the GoSilico software present business growth opportunities for companies specialising in chromatography solutions, facilitating innovation and efficiency in the related industry.

## Notice

Chromatography modelling software.

### Procurement Information

The GoSilico offering is unique because it offers by far the best-proven and most versatile models on the market, which cover a large range of different chromatography columns, machines, products and contaminants. In particular, it is especially well-suited for modelling the chromatography components supplied by its parent company Cytiva, which we intend to use to a large extent in this project. This is a major advantage of the GoSilico software over commercial competitor products such as Aspen Chromatography, which is more limited in the scope of the elements that can be modelled. Furthermore we have also considered the use of open-source solutions such as CADET, but these would require extensive expert training to operate which we do not have time for in this short-duration project, with GoSilico being far more accessible to non-experts.
