## About this tender

The University of Birmingham invited tenders for supply of a quantum stabilisation

platform for the motion control of quantum gravimeter systems. The stabilisation

platform workstation will form part of a physical demonstrator, i.e. facilities created

as

part of the Quantum Technologies Hub - the EPSRC funded project.

This will be used to ensure vertical alignment of an atom interferometer quantum

sensor during mobile operation & provide vibration isolation so that the sensor

doesn't

exceed its dynamic range. The equipment is an essential integral part of the sensor

suite

to be used in the real-world map-matching activity. The requested equipment will be

integrated into the field-capable gravity gradiometer.

Overall budget for this item is up to Â£300,000.00 excluding VAT, including delivery

to

the University of Birmingham, training and manuals and warranties over the length of

the Quantum Technologies Hub grant i.e. 30th November 2024.
