Tender description

The Dstl Approved Dosimetry Service (ADS) requires a new Harshaw Model 8800 Plus thermoluminescent dosimetry reader, with built-in internal 90Sr/Y irradiator (0.5 mCi/18.5 MBq), to maintain its ability to provide the MOD with personal radiation dosimetry. Lot 1: The Dstl ADS has two Harshaw 8800 Plus thermoluminescent dosimetry readers that are used to provide the MOD (including the Defence Nuclear Enterprise and Defence Medical Services) with personal radiation dosimetry. One of these readers has been in service for almost 25 years and so is approaching the end of its working life. The requirement is to replace this reader with like-for-like equipment. This will maintain an S&T capability that is critical to the delivery of Defence operations and is therefore aligned with the Dstl strategic theme: Enabling operational advantage at pace. Replacing the ageing Harshaw dosimetry reader will maintain an S&T capability that is critical to the delivery of Defence operations and is therefore aligned with the Dstl strategic theme: Enabling operational advantage at pace.

Defence Equipment & Support buys, supports and supplies equipment such as jets, warships and armoured vehicles for the armed forces. The Defence Infrastructure Organisation plans, builds and maintains the defence estate separately from equipment procurement.
