Description
The University of Southampton is currently exploring a range of options to meet its need for an Ultraprecision CNC Machining System.
The Optoelectronics Research Centre (ORC) is looking to extend its capability in ultraprecision machining of photonics. Specifically, the ability to process larger wafers, integrate inline metrology systems and increase processing speed.
An indicative value of this project is in the region of £450,000.00 exc VAT.
The University is keen to explore all options that may be available in the marketplace and interested parties are invited to complete and return a Soft Market Testing Questionnaire. The deadline for the receipt of completed Soft Market Testing Questionnaires is 11th January 2024 at 12.00 noon.
Responses received as part of this soft market testing exercise shall be used to help shape the University's final specification of system requirements and scope any resulting procurement process.
Please Note: The University is conducting this soft market testing exercise to allow interested parties, with appropriate experience, to outline their views and provide impartial information to the University with no commitment to themselves or the University. This is not a call for competition at this stage.
The University is utilising an electronic tendering tool (In-Tend: https://in-tendhost.co.uk/ universityofsouthampton) to manage this soft market testing exercise and to communicate with participating organisations.
All documentation in relation to this soft market testing exercise can be downloaded from In-Tend.
