The instrument will enable research on electrocatalytic reactions, chemical\n synthesis, carbon–heteroatom coupling reactions, catalyst degradation, and sustainable\n energy-conversion and storage processes. The scientific objective is to identify transient\n reaction intermediates, catalyst transformations, local temperature effects, and dynamic\n structure–activity relationships under realistic operating conditions. This requires\n a combination of functionalities that are technically necessary for the planned research\n programme and that, based on the conducted market survey, are not available as an\n equivalent integrated solution from alternative suppliers. Alternative modular or\n multi-supplier solutions were assessed and found not to provide equivalent technical\n capability, synchronization ac-curacy, data quality, or experimental reliability.
The\n following functionalities are considered essential for the planned research programme:
•\n Direct synchronization between Raman spectroscopy and electrochemical control is necessary\n be-cause the primary purpose of the instrument is operando investigation of electrochemical\n interfaces during dynamic experiments such as pulsed electrolysis, catalyst activation,\n and degradation studies. Without direct synchronization, Raman spectra and electrochemical\n data must be acquired separately and aligned afterwards. This would reduce the necessary\n temporal accuracy and prevent the ability to correlate spectroscopic transformations\n with specific electrochemical events. Based on the market survey performed, no alternative\n supplier was identified to provide the direct integration and synchronized operation.
•\n Automated laser-scanning mapping of heterogeneous sensitive catalyst and material\n surfaces is necessary because the catalyst materials investigated are heterogeneous\n and often undergo spatially dependent transformations during operation. Without rapid\n laser-scanning measurements, investigation of catalyst heterogeneity becomes significantly\n slower and increase local laser exposure. This results in sample heating, photochemical\n damage, and measurement-induced irreversible surface modification, thereby significantly\n compromising the validity, reliability, and scientific integrity of the measurements.\n The market survey identified a patented laser-scanning implementation specifically\n designed to perform rapid measurements while minimizing local laser exposure and measurement-induced\n perturbation of sensitive catalyst surfaces.
• Ultra-low-frequency Raman capability\n (approximately 5 cm-1 or lower) is necessary because many catalyst transformations\n relevant to electrocatalysis and novel materials involve low-frequency vibrational\n modes associated with catalyst restructuring, lattice dynamics, phase transitions,\n and adsorb-ate-surface interactions. Without access to the ultra-low-frequency spectral\n region, these processes cannot be directly observed. Ultra-low-frequency Raman measurements\n are not available from other suppliers below 10 cm-1; additionally.
• Quantitative\n Stokes and anti-Stokes Raman measurements are necessary for investigating local thermal\n effects and non-equilibrium phenomena at catalytic interfaces through Raman thermometry.\n Without reliable anti-Stokes measurements, local catalyst temperatures and thermal\n gradients cannot be determined directly. Some suppliers offer anti-Stokes measurements;\n however, no alternative supplier was identified as providing this functionality in\n combination DTU needs.
• Time-resolved operando Raman measurements are necessary\n because catalytic interfaces evolve dynamically on timescales ranging from milliseconds\n to seconds. Without sufficient temporal resolution, transient reaction intermediates\n and catalyst restructuring processes cannot be observed directly, preventing mechanistic\n investigation of dynamic catalytic phenomena. Several suppliers offer time-resolved\n Raman measurements. No alternative supplier was identified as providing time-resolved\n operando Raman measurements together with synchronized Raman–electrochemistry.
The\n market survey included detailed assessment of commercially available systems from\n the industry. While several suppliers offer individual elements of the required functionality,\n significant limitations were identified. Some suppliers do not provide integrated\n spectroelectrochemical control and lacks the required combination of synchronized\n electrochemistry and automated laser-scanning functionality. Others did not provide\n integrated spectroelectrochemical control and relies on fibredefined confocality rather\n than a continuously adjustable confocal system. And some did not provide integrated\n spectroelectrochemical control and does not offer ultra-low-frequency Raman capability.\n Consequently, none of the assessed alternative suppliers were found capable of providing\n the necessary technically required functionalities within a single integrated commercial\n platform. Alternative solutions would require combinations of third-party hardware,\n custom software integration, external synchronization systems, and modified experimental\n workflows. Such approaches would introduce additional synchronization uncertainty\n between spectroscopic and electrochemical measurements, increase system complexity,\n require extensive validation and maintenance, and limit reproducibility of the experiments.\n Because the planned research depends on precise temporal correlation between electrochemical\n events and spectroscopic observations, these approaches were assessed as not providing\n the necessary technical solution. Accordingly, no reasonable alternative solution\n was identified that could fulfil the scientific and technical requirements of the\n research programme.\n \n 6.1 Resultat delkontrakt-ID: LOT-00006.1.2 Oplysninger om vinderneVinder:Officielt navn: Horiba Europe GmbH\n \n Tilbud – Identifikator: Offer\n ID for delkontrakt eller gruppe af delkontrakter: LOT-0000\n Værdien af tilbuddet: 418.298 Euro\n \n Kontraktoplysninger:Identifikator for kontrakten: Contract\n Datoen for udvælgelsen af det vindende tilbud: 26-06-2026\n Organisation, der underskriver kontrakten: Danmarks Tekniske Universitet - DTU\n \n \n \n \n \n 8 Organisationer8.1 ORG-0001Officielt navn: Danmarks Tekniske Universitet - DTU\n Registreringsnummer: 30060946\n Postadresse: Anker Engelunds Vej 1 \n \n \n Landsdel (NUTS): Københavns omegn (DK012)\n \n \n \n \n Internetadresse: https://www.dtu.dk\n Køberprofil: https://eu.eu-supply.com/ctm/company/companyinformation/index/165863\n Denne organisations roller:\n Organisation, der leverer supplerende oplysninger om udbudsproceduren\n Organisation, der sikrer adgang til udbudsdokumenterne offline\n Organisation, der underskriver kontrakten\n Organisation, hvis budget anvendes til at betale for kontrakten\n Organisation, der udfører betalingen\n \n \n 8.1 ORG-0002Officielt navn: Klagenævnet for Udbud\n Registreringsnummer: 37795526\n Postadresse: Nævnenes hus, Toldboden 2 \n \n \n Landsdel (NUTS): Østjylland (DK042)\n \n E-mail: klfu@naeveneshus.dk\n \n Internetadresse: http://www.klfu.dk\n Denne organisations roller:Organisation med ansvar for klager\n \n \n 8.1 ORG-0003Officielt navn: Konkurrence- og Forbrugerstyrelsen\n Registreringsnummer: 10294819\n Postadresse: Carl Jacobsens Vej 35 \n \n \n Landsdel (NUTS): Byen København (DK011)\n \n \n \n Internetadresse: http://www.kfst.dk\n Denne organisations roller:Organisation, der leverer yderligere oplysninger om klageprocedurerne\n \n \n 8.1 ORG-0004Officielt navn: Horiba Europe GmbH\n \n \n Landsdel (NUTS): Skåne län (SE224)\n \n Denne organisations roller:\n Vinder af disse delkontrakter: LOT-0000\n \n \n 8.1 ORG-0005Officielt navn: Mercell Holding ASA\n Registreringsnummer: 980921565\n Postadresse: Askekroken 11 \n \n \n Landsdel (NUTS): Oslo (NO081)\n \n \n E-mail: publication@mercell.com\n \n \n Internetadresse: http://mercell.com/\n Denne organisations roller:\n \n \n \n Oplysninger om bekendtgørelsenBekendtgørelsens ID: 7463206a-35af-44b0-8d7a-2d508bd51765 - 01\n Formulartype: Forudgående underretning om direkte tildeling\n Bekendtgørelsestype: Bekendtgørelse med henblik på frivillig forudgående gennemsigtighed\n Afsendelsesdato for bekendtgørelsen: 29-06-2026 15:55 +00:00\n Dato for afsendelse af bekendtgørelsen (eSender): 29-06-2026 15:56 +00:00\n Bekendtgørelsens officielle sprog: engelsk \n Bekendtgørelsesnummer: 00449806-2026\n \n Offentliggørelsesdato: 01-07-2026\n \n \n","htmlEN":"\n\n \n 1 Buyer1.1 BuyerOfficial name: Danmarks Tekniske Universitet - DTU\n Legal type of the buyer: Body governed by public law\n Activity of the contracting authority: Education\n \n \n 2 Procedure2.1 ProcedureTitle: Raman Microscope for DTU Chemistry\n Description: The Technical University of Denmark (DTU) intends to acquire one complete high-resolution\n confocal Raman microscopy and spectroelectrochemical characterization system, including\n all associated hardware, software, accessories, installation, commissioning, training,\n and warranty.

This results in sample heating, photochemical\n damage, and measurement-induced irreversible surface modification, thereby significantly\n compromising the validity, reliability, and scientific integrity of the measurements.\n The market survey identified a patented laser-scanning implementation specifically\n designed to perform rapid measurements while minimizing local laser exposure and measurement-induced\n perturbation of sensitive catalyst surfaces.
• Ultra-low-frequency Raman capability\n (approximately 5 cm-1 or lower) is necessary because many catalyst transformations\n relevant to electrocatalysis and novel materials involve low-frequency vibrational\n modes associated with catalyst restructuring, lattice dynamics, phase transitions,\n and adsorb-ate-surface interactions. Without access to the ultra-low-frequency spectral\n region, these processes cannot be directly observed. Ultra-low-frequency Raman measurements\n are not available from other suppliers below 10 cm-1; additionally.
• Quantitative\n Stokes and anti-Stokes Raman measurements are necessary for investigating local thermal\n effects and non-equilibrium phenomena at catalytic interfaces through Raman thermometry.\n Without reliable anti-Stokes measurements, local catalyst temperatures and thermal\n gradients cannot be determined directly. Some suppliers offer anti-Stokes measurements;\n however, no alternative supplier was identified as providing this functionality in\n combination DTU needs.
• Time-resolved operando Raman measurements are necessary\n because catalytic interfaces evolve dynamically on timescales ranging from milliseconds\n to seconds. Without sufficient temporal resolution, transient reaction intermediates\n and catalyst restructuring processes cannot be observed directly, preventing mechanistic\n investigation of dynamic catalytic phenomena. Several suppliers offer time-resolved\n Raman measurements. No alternative supplier was identified as providing time-resolved\n operando Raman measurements together with synchronized Raman–electrochemistry.
The\n market survey included detailed assessment of commercially available systems from\n the industry. While several suppliers offer individual elements of the required functionality,\n significant limitations were identified. Some suppliers do not provide integrated\n spectroelectrochemical control and lacks the required combination of synchronized\n electrochemistry and automated laser-scanning functionality. Others did not provide\n integrated spectroelectrochemical control and relies on fibredefined confocality rather\n than a continuously adjustable confocal system. And some did not provide integrated\n spectroelectrochemical control and does not offer ultra-low-frequency Raman capability.\n Consequently, none of the assessed alternative suppliers were found capable of providing\n the necessary technically required functionalities within a single integrated commercial\n platform. Alternative solutions would require combinations of third-party hardware,\n custom software integration, external synchronization systems, and modified experimental\n workflows. Such approaches would introduce additional synchronization uncertainty\n between spectroscopic and electrochemical measurements, increase system complexity,\n require extensive validation and maintenance, and limit reproducibility of the experiments.\n Because the planned research depends on precise temporal correlation between electrochemical\n events and spectroscopic observations, these approaches were assessed as not providing\n the necessary technical solution. Accordingly, no reasonable alternative solution\n was identified that could fulfil the scientific and technical requirements of the\n research programme.\n \n 6.1 Result lot identifier: LOT-00006.1.2 Information about winnersWinner:Official name: Horiba Europe GmbH\n \n \n Identifier of lot or group of lots: LOT-0000\n Value of the tender: 418.298 Euro\n \n Contract information:Identifier of the contract: Contract\n Date on which the winner was chosen: 26-06-2026\n Organisation signing the contract: Danmarks Tekniske Universitet - DTU\n \n \n \n \n \n 8 Organisations8.1 ORG-0001Official name: Danmarks Tekniske Universitet - DTU\n Registration number: 30060946\n Postal address: Anker Engelunds Vej 1 \n \n \n Country subdivision (NUTS): Københavns omegn (DK012)\n \n Contact point: Anna Storch\n \n \n Internet address: https://www.dtu.dk\n Buyer profile: https://eu.eu-supply.com/ctm/company/companyinformation/index/165863\n Roles of this organisation:\n Organisation providing additional information about the procurement procedure\n Organisation providing offline access to the procurement documents\n Organisation signing the contract\n Organisation whose budget is used to pay for the contract\n Organisation executing the payment\n \n \n 8.1 ORG-0002Official name: Klagenævnet for Udbud\n Registration number: 37795526\n Postal address: Nævnenes hus, Toldboden 2 \n \n \n Country subdivision (NUTS): Østjylland (DK042)\n \n Email: klfu@naeveneshus.dk\n \n Internet address: http://www.klfu.dk\n Roles of this organisation:\n \n \n 8.1 ORG-0003Official name: Konkurrence- og Forbrugerstyrelsen\n Registration number: 10294819\n Postal address: Carl Jacobsens Vej 35 \n \n \n Country subdivision (NUTS): Byen København (DK011)\n \n \n \n Internet address: http://www.kfst.dk\n Roles of this organisation:Organisation providing more information on the review procedures\n \n \n 8.1 ORG-0004Official name: Horiba Europe GmbH\n \n \n Country subdivision (NUTS): Skåne län (SE224)\n \n Roles of this organisation:\n Winner of these lots: LOT-0000\n \n \n 8.1 ORG-0005Official name: Mercell Holding ASA\n Registration number: 980921565\n Postal address: Askekroken 11 \n \n \n Country subdivision (NUTS): Oslo (NO081)\n \n \n Email: publication@mercell.com\n \n \n Internet address: http://mercell.com/\n Roles of this organisation:\n \n \n \n Notice informationNotice identifier/version: 7463206a-35af-44b0-8d7a-2d508bd51765 - 01\n Form type: Direct award preannouncement\n Notice type: Voluntary ex-ante transparency notice\n Notice dispatch date: 29-06-2026 15:55 +00:00\n Notice dispatch date (eSender): 29-06-2026 15:56 +00:00\n Languages in which this notice is officially available: English \n Notice publication number: 00449806-2026\n OJ S issue number: 124/2026\n Publication date: 01-07-2026\n \n \n","opsummeringDA":{"card":{"titel":"Raman Microscope for DTU Chemistry","ordregiver":"Danmarks Tekniske Universitet - DTU","ordregiverId":"30060946","ordregiverIdDatavasket":"30060946","publiceringsdato":"2026-07-01+02:00","cpvKode":"38433000","cpvTitel":"Spektrometre","formulartype":"Forudgående underretning om direkte tildeling","formulartypeKode":"dir-awa-pre","tidsfrister":[],"alleOrdregivere":["Danmarks Tekniske Universitet - DTU"],"beskrivelse":"The Technical University of Denmark (DTU) intends to acquire one complete high-resolution confocal Raman microscopy and spectroelectrochemical characterization system, including all associated hardware, software, accessories, installation, commissioning, training, and warranty.\nThe system will support research and education activities within catalysis, electrochemistry, materials science, energy conversion, sustainable fuels, and chemical synthesis.
