Tender description
This award notice relates to the contract for the Supply, delivery and commissioning of a ball bonder for the University of Strathclyde Institute of Photonics (IP). This equipment will be used to enhance delivery of electro-photonic microsystems in a number of major projects, including EPSRC Platform and Programme Grants, Phase 2 Quantum Technology Hubs, and an RAEng Chair in Emerging Technologies. The capabilities added by the equipment will be essential to produce high-density electrical interconnects of two distinct types: pad-to-pad wire bonds with wire diameters below 20 microns if required, and two-dimensional bump bond arrays. In the latter case, the ball bonder will be used in a two-stage process, in which it produces arrays of metal bumps on one component subsequently assembled with a second component.

About the buyer
University of Strathclyde is a higher education provider in Glasgow, and buys through its own Procurement Services Team. Tender notices are advertised through the Public Contracts Scotland portal. Larger contracts also appear on Find a Tender once they pass the set threshold. Schools, faculties and departments place their own routine orders under central Finance Regulations and procurement procedures. Framework agreements through Advanced Procurement for Universities & Colleges, the Scottish Government and the Government Procurement Service cover much of its spend. Suppliers need a university purchase order before supplying goods or services, and cannot win business through direct marketing.
Education procurement reached £47.4bn in 2024/25, the fourth-largest public sector budget.
Over the past 5 years, most of University of Strathclyde's contract awards have been in business services, IT services and education and training.
