    Brief

    The Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew (RBG Kew) is seeking suppliers to design, supply, and install environmental control chambers for a new controlled environment research facility at its Wakehurst site. The chambers must provide precise and reproducible control of temperature, humidity, lighting, and CO2 concentrations to support diverse plant science research activities including seed regeneration, germination studies, pollination experiments, and accelerated breeding programmes. RBG Kew is currently in the Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) phase to refine requirements, assess market capabilities, and develop procurement strategy. Suppliers are encouraged to participate in the PME exercise by completing a questionnaire, which will inform the final specification and procurement approach but will not be used in future tender evaluation. A competitive procurement process is anticipated to follow the PME phase, with further details on scope, procedure, and timeline to be announced. To participate, visit https://www.delta-esourcing.com/respond/RWD675SY4V or contact Delta eSourcing Helpdesk at 0800 923 9236 or helpdesk@delta-esourcing.com for technical support.
