[PPN 005: reserving by supplier location](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/ppn-005-reserving-below-threshold-procurements/ppn-005-guide-to-reserving-below-threshold-html) - Below-threshold contract Buyers cannot shortlist bidders on suitability before tenders are in, so everyone gets to submit a bid (except some larger works contracts). [Procurement Act 2023, section 85](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/section/85) - Sets up a framework Winning a place does not guarantee work: contracts are awarded later as call-offs, and the list usually stays closed for years. - Open procedure Anyone can submit a full tender; there is no shortlisting stage. ## About this tender CPI has several plant and lab facilities comprising multiple Technology Centres that require the use of metrology equipment to enable delivery of its multiple analytical and process requirements. Our facilities are situated in Sedgefield, Darlington, Glasgow and Wilton. The scope of the framework primarily encompasses the calibration and ongoing maintenance of all pipettes, including associated components and accessories. It is also expected to cover the procurement of new pipettes as required to support these activities. CPIs current inventory of pipettes is listed in Appendix 1 of this document pack. This list is comprehensive and though accurate at the time of publishing of this document the inventory is expected to fluctuate over the course of the tender. CPI will retire equipment as well as onboard new units as required over the course of the tender- and will endeavour to provide accurate inventory lists prior to any onsite visits and calibrations. CPI expects the successful bidder to provide primarily onsite calibration and services, with the flexibility to carry out offsite calibrations and repairs when deemed most efficient and practical for both parties. ## CPV classification Pipettes Calibration services Source Find a Tender (UK) · Notice ocds-h6vhtk-05993c-2025-11-06T11:32:47Z [View official notice](https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/ocds-h6vhtk-05993c-2025-11-06T11:32:47Z) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
