Supply, Delivery, Installation & On-Site Maintenance of Digitisation Scanning Equipment

UK Hydrographic Office

The objective of this tender is to procure brand-new digitisation equipment and accompanying software (with licence) to support the high-quality, digital capture of a wide range of archival and heritage materials of varying size, thickness and weight in this Financial Year. We require a large format floor mounted image scanner (up to A0 size) with a mobile scanning bed. Among other features, it must be capable of manual access, integrated quality control, resolution up to 600PPI optical (however higher levels can be offered) and integrated software with OCR ability. The equipment required includes: • Overhead planetary scanner for fragile, rare, or bound documents like books and maps with a stand mounted camera system to capture images without any contact with the document. • The ability for the scanner to scan oversized documents, such as folios, plans, surveys, maps, atlases, books, illustrations, paintings, sketches and charts. • It should have the flexibility to allow for scanning of historic books that are unable to be fully opened due to their spine integrity and delicate condition. System Depth of Field - should be capable of scanning thick books and folded materials. Cradle/Stage/Platform requirements: • Adjustable bed frame or camera position with manual or automated control • Book cradle table for originals up to 645 mm x 860 mm (>A0) and self-aligning and height-adjustable (motorised) able to accommodate books up to 50 cm thick and weighing up to 50Kgs • Image Quality - Resolution from 300 PPI - 600PPI. Scans need to have even and uniform illumination - even at the image corners and edges. The Scanner requires controlled lighting within book curves to prevent loss of image details. • Conservation lighting - Modern, LED lighting concept (UV / IR and ozone free). Glare and flicker-free lighting during capturing (no flash effects). Colour temperature from 5,500 to 6,500 Kelvin. Adjustable light intensity from 1,000 to 3,500 lux. Scanning Outputs • Internal c

High-Precision laboratory-based laser absorption spectrometer

NPL Management Limited

Procurement of a high-precision laboratory-based laser absorption spectrometer for the direct and simultaneous measurement of carbon and hydrogen isotope ratios (δ13C‑CH4 and δD‑CH4) and methane amount fraction in air using a single analyser. The contract is proposed as a direct award because only one supplier can provide a laboratory‑based laser absorption spectrometer that enables the direct and simultaneous measurement of carbon and hydrogen isotope ratios of methane and methane amount fraction in an atmospheric air sample within a single analyser. Other instrument suppliers do not offer equivalent functionality within one system and would require multiple analysers or alternative measurement approaches. As a result, there is no reasonable alternative solution that meets the technical and operational requirements of the contracting party.
