Published requirement descriptionCPI’s National Formulation Center has a requirement for equipment for electrochemical characterisation using galvonostat or potentiostat systems and thermal chambers for testing of research grade battery cells. The Tender is split into two Lots.CPI would like to invite suppliers with specialty in either field to participate either to individual lots, or if a provider offers integrated systems which can satisfy the requirements of both lots to bid into both. No preference is given to ability to integrate rather the strength of response to the tender specifications.

- Price carries 30 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “Electrochemical Characterisation Equipment” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 2 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
