Acquisition of a TS10 3'' R500 Total Station with AutoHeight

This tender concerns the acquisition of a TS10 3'' R500 Total Station with AutoHeight. The procurement falls under the category of G27 - Scientific Instruments; Measuring, Observation, and Analysis Apparatus. The contracting authority for this tender is Cégep de l'Outaouais. The procurement method specified is a negotiated contract, based on Article 14, which allows for contracts below the public tender threshold. This implies that the Cégep de l'Outaouais has identified a specific need for this scientific instrument and is proceeding with a direct negotiation process due to the contract's value being below the threshold that would mandate a public call for tenders. The total station is a sophisticated surveying instrument used for measuring angles and distances, essential for precise topographical mapping, construction layout, and engineering projects. The "3'' R500" designation likely refers to the instrument's angular accuracy (3 arcseconds) and reflectorless measurement range (500 meters), indicating a high-precision device. The "AutoHeight" feature suggests an automated function for determining the instrument's height, further enhancing efficiency and accuracy in field operations. This acquisition is crucial for the Cégep de l'Outaouais's scientific and technical departments, likely supporting educational programs in surveying, civil engineering, or geomatics, as well as research activities requiring advanced measurement capabilities.

This is a supplies contract in the construction and civil works and architecture and engineering sectors, with a focus on Quantity Surveying. Located in Canada, North America, this opportunity is open to firms and consortiums.
