The University of Sheffield awarded a contract to BOC Ltd for the replacement of safety-critical gas supply panels at the Nanoscience Facility.

The panels, which are essential safety devices for the facility's safe operation, were replaced due to age-related failures.

Without the replacement systems, the facility would have been forced to shut down within 2 to 3 months, leaving insufficient time for a tendering exercise.

The contract value was £65,000.
