The procuring entity, based in Glasgow (UKM82), seeks advanced equipment suitable for a semiconductor manufacturing environment to non-destructively inspect work-pieces, identifying delamination and structural discontinuities. This procurement was conducted through an open procedure, with key events including the tender issuance on 1st October 2024, the tender submission deadline on 31st October 2024, and the contract award dated 10th January 2025. The procurement has been completed, and the contract was awarded to Industrial Production Processes Ltd for a total value of £350,554.00. This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses involved in the manufacturing and supply of high-precision microscopy equipment, particularly those with a focus on the semiconductor industry. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like Industrial Production Processes Ltd, which successfully secured the contract, can enhance their market reach and reputation through such high-profile engagements. Companies with expertise in advanced imaging technology, precision machinery, and quality manufacturing processes are well-suited to compete for similar contracts, thereby gaining access to new business avenues and expanding their operational footprint. ## Notice NMIS require C-SAM (scanning acoustic microscope) capability. C-SAM is required to non-destructively inspect work-pieces at various stages of our semiconductor packaging process. We require a machine that can accept samples approximately 500 x 500 mm and is suitable for use in a semiconductor manufacturing context to detect delamination and other structural discontinuities in semiconductor packages. Machine outputs should include high resolution C-Scan images, and possibly A- and B- scan images. ### Lot Information Lot 1 NMIS require C-SAM (scanning acoustic microscope) capability.
