What is being bought

Studio Ulster wish to acquire a highly specialised, bespoke and high-fidelity combined 3D and 4D volumetric scanning solution for their state-of-the-art virtual production studio complex located at Belfast Harbour Studios in Northern Ireland. This system will be one of the most advanced currently available on the market for use in AAA gaming production, animation at scale, VFX at the highest levels of international film production and research purposes. Comprising two integrated systems one for high-fidelity 3D image acquisition using a large geodesic dome circa 2.3m high. Large enough to cover full body scanning. The second integrated system should include 4D volumetric capture. Lighting should be integrated and synchronised with camera operations for both. The dome should offer a significant number of mounting points for lighting, and cameras and offer integrated power distribution with camera trigger technology. The 4D system should also support high frame rates of 120 FPS or higher. The lighting set-up must allow for the directional polarised lighting states to aid in the recovery of photogrammatic information. The system must also allow for the separation of speculative and diffuse information. The system controller and customisable API must be able to trigger multiple cameras simultaneously with the lighting to facilitate accurate captures. The system must also be able to capture 3D data during a 4D capture.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 32. The category anchor is Fibre-optic materials (32560000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 322,0364 median · 34.3 average (745 of 2,036 with a bid count)3.9 average (860 of 2,036 with named award suppliers)Not published

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
