Coverage: 59 active published awards; 23 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Price reduction compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

What is being bought
NPL require a state-of-the-art white-light interferometer (WLI) with a microscope form-factor to enable areal surface topography measurement of appropriate workpieces. By ‘white-light interferometry’ we mean ‘coherence scanning interferometry with visible light’ as described in ISO 25178-604:2013.
The WLI will be used in a dimensional metrology laboratory at NPL to undertake traceable measurement tasks required for NPL’s measurement services and R&D activities. We are seeking a state-of-the-art instrument and the technical specifications described later in this document include commensurate functionality such as automatic sample staging/alignment with multiple optics for measurement of different sample/feature scales, and associated measurement automation software and data analysis software packages.
