The University wishes to appoint a Contractor or Contractors as The Flow Cytometry Facility at The University of Manchester requires a spectral flow cytometer to facilitate high-parameter single cell analysis. In particular we wish to undertake immunophenotyping and functional analysis of precious patient material as well as samples from experimental systems. There will be >40 research groups using this spectral flow cytometer from across the University and, therefore, the proposed equipment needs to be as versatile as possible; the equipment will be located at The University of Manchester.

The Division of Pharmacy and Optometry wants to upgrade its NMR facilities and requires a new superconducting Fourier transform NMR spectrometer at 400 MHz This multinuclear NMR instrument will be housed on the 2nd floor of the Stopford Building (Lab 2.282)

The Division of Pharmacy and Optometry wants to upgrade its NMR facilities and requires a new superconducting Fourier transform NMR spectrometer at 400 MHz This multinuclear NMR instrument will be housed on the 2nd floor of the Stopford Building (Lab 2.282) together with the current Bruker AVANCE II+ 400 MHz spectrometer. The currently inactive "old" 300 MHz Bruker AVANCE instrument, which has been recently quenched under controlled conditions, is to be removed from the installation site prior to commissioning the new 400 MHz instrument.

The University is currently undertaking a project to introduce a single case management system for three central support services located within the Division of Campus Life ; Counselling and Mental Health, Disability Services and Advice and Response (which is responsible for safeguarding cases and conduct and discipline). Each service requires their own solution that is aligned with their activities, whilst also offering an overview of actions and interactions across the three services. As part of this project, it has been identified that it would be beneficial to carry out soft market testing to ascertain the offerings of such applications within the market, and any key areas of development within recent years.

Provision of First Aid Training Services to The University of Manchester

The Centre for Atmospheric Science requires a fast switching bipolar chemical ionisation mass spectrometer to facilitate trace gas analysis on the British Atmospheric Research Aircraft (ARA) operated by the Faculty for Airborne Atmospheric Measurements (FAAM). To allow a wide range of measurements, this instrument must facilitate the operation of multiple reagent ions (up to 6 simultaneously) that can be flexibly interchanged on the aircraft and provide complete measurement cycles at time resolution sufficient to allow useful measurements on the aircraft. The instrument must be of a sufficiently small size and weight to be certified on this research aircraft.

The University wishes to purchase team kits for the University's sporting representative teams and UoM Sport workforce uniforms for the period 2023-2026, goods and services to be provided at The University of Manchester.

The University of Manchester seeks a partner to support the design and implementation of a PPM tool that will improve our ability to track, report and manage our project portfolio. Currently we manage the portfolio through Excel, Word and Powerpoint. The partner would add value though identifying where our workflows and processes can be automated across portfolio, programme and project levels and throughout the lifecycle of the project.

The Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences at the University of Manchester operate an aerosol mass spectrometer on the Facility for Airborne Atmospheric Measurements (FAAM) BAe-146 research aircraft, to make highly accurate and quantitative measurements of atmospheric aerosol composition in real time. The current system is being upgraded as part of the facility's Midlife Upgrade (MLU) programme, to ensure that cutting-edge aerosol measurements can continue to be made on this facility until 2040. In addition to decommissioning old, obsolete components, we are seeking to improve on the mass spectrometer design to permit measurements of organic elemental composition in addition to mass concentrations. The equipment will be located at The University of Manchester when not deployed on the FAAM aircraft.
