021-0221T Soil Module Prototype & Supply Contract

This Procurement is for and on behalf of CHAP.

CHAP and AEC operate The Phenotyping and Soil Health Facility at Cranfield University MK43 0AL.

For this facility it seeks to ultimately procure 24 large (approx.

1 m3) Soil Modules - in effect these are open top boxes which allow for crop growth under controlled environmental and soil conditions and allows for soil tillage operations to be simulated.

For the avoidance of doubt, the subsequent production and procurement of the above 24 Soil Modules will only be granted and commissioned upon successful testing and approval of the proposed Prototype to the awarded bidder of the Prototype, and no obligation or commitment to procure further Soil Modules is expressly given or implied to the successfully awarded bidder who produces the aforementioned Prototype
