Payment Terms
Check noticePublished terms
Payment obligations depend on the applicable regime and contract. Consult the official documents.
Coverage: 4 active published awards; 3 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 Unpublished data stays unknown.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.

Procedure rationaleWe require a new laser producing ultrashort laser pulses for the School of Chemistry. We require wavelength tunability, so we will also purchase a non-collinear parametric amplifier (NOPA) as an add-on to the laser. The new generation of laser systems are only supplied by Light Conversion (which are distributed by Photonics Solutions in the UK), Spectra-Physics, and Coherent.
