## Summary

The University of Strathclyde, located in Glasgow, is inviting tenders for the supply, delivery, and installation of Solder Jetting Equipment. This contract falls under the industry category of education and is intended to support the development of the National Centre for Advanced Semiconductor Packaging (NCASP). The procurement process is in the tender stage, with an open procedure method being utilised. Interested parties need to submit their bids electronically by 31st August 2026, prior to the award period starting the same day. The contract will be delivered within the Glasgow region, specifically targeting goods related to photonic and semiconductor device packaging.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in advanced semiconductor and photonic device processing. Companies with experience in semiconductor packaging and the capacity to provide integrated solutions could find growth potential through involvement in this initiative. Solder Jetting technology suppliers and those engaged in high-volume manufacturing and integration processes are particularly well-placed to benefit. Meeting the turnover and insurance criteria, along with demonstrated experience from past projects, will be crucial for businesses aiming to participate successfully in this tender.

## Notice

Background The UK urgently requires a sovereign, open-access advanced semiconductor packaging capability to close a well-evidenced market failure. Today, UK innovators in photonics and power electronics rely on overseas Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test (OSAT) facilities for scaling to volume packaging, which fragments the supply chain, extends lead times, increases Intellectual Property (IP) leakage risk, and exposes critical technologies to geopolitical disruption. The National Centre for Advanced Semiconductor Packaging (NCASP) is the missing link that converts research excellence into manufacturable products. NCASP is creating an integrated, industry-led scale-up facility that connects UK device design to domestic, high-volume packaging, test and metrology - reducing time-to-market and anchoring value onshore. Description A Solder Jetting capability is required to process photonic and semiconductor devices to allow them to be integrated into advanced packages.
