## About this tender

\*\*\*For the avoidance of doubt, this is not a call for competition. This notice is to inform the market of a Future Opportunity\*\*\*

UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) brings together the seven Research Councils (AHRC, BBSRC, EPSRC, ESRC, MRC, NERC, STFC) plus Innovate UK and a new organisation, Research England.

UKRI wishes to establish a Framework for the provision of Antibodies.

It is intended that the Framework will be based upon four LOTS:

- Lot 1 Primary Unconjugated
- Lot 2 Primary Conjugated
- Lot 3 Secondary Unconjugated
- Lot 4 Secondary Conjugated

The objective of this procurement will be to:

- Produce a Framework Agreement that UKRI can easily use and provide a compliant route to market.
- Capture a large percentage of the Antibodies requirements from large value items to low value, high volume items.
- Develop strong relationships with UKRI and Suppliers to ensure that the requirements are captured and value for money is achieved.
- To capture quality management information that will support informed decision making in future procurements.
- To ensure sustainability aspects are considered and integrated into the Framework Agreement.
- To continuously improve and apply best practice procurement that meets the end users' requirements.

\*\*\*\*There is no commitment at this stage that the above mentioned opportunity will proceed in its current format\*\*\*\*

\*\*\*GSS23743 Supplier Day\*\*\*

In order for Suppliers to obtain an overview of the requirement, UK SBS on behalf of UKRI will be holding a Supplier day on Tuesday 10th October 2023 at 15:00hrs GMT, and Wednesday 11th October 2023 at 14:00hrs GMT. The duration of the Supplier day will be approximately 1 hour and will be held online.
