Procedure rationaleThe College has purchased the following items of equipment: 1. Festo CP Lab 400 Complete System including CP Lab 410-1 and CP Lab 404-1 2. Mechanical Trainers (specifically linked to (1) above) 3. User Licences (specifically linked to (1) above) 4. Smart Sensor Training Package (specifically linked to (1) above) The items of equipment are manufacturer-specific and are required by the College to train its students and apprentices in the use and maintenance of this specific equipment. This equipment is used by the local employers whose students and apprentices attend training courses at the College. The proposed system to be purchased links to existing equipment installed in the College for training purposes that was selected following a competitive tender at the time of its purchase. The College is not aware of any other company capable of supplying this specific equipment, as the supplier is the only official/accredited partner in the UK & Ireland for the specific equipment being purchased. The College previously published a VEAT notice to this effect and it received no objections.
