FESEM/FIB procurement!

At our school (Materials and Manufacturing, Jönköping University) we are planning an investment on a state-of-the-art FIB/FESEM for 2D and 3D microstructural analysis.
Within the last three month, together with my colleagues, we have been doing a vast amount of planning, and company visits within Europe to find the best solution for our research need.

According to that I have been working with a consultant company to come up with professional tender documents to ask for procurement of the desired microscope.
It has been a very interesting process, full of new experiences; today with publishing the tender, we have started the more interesting 40 days (tender duration).
It has been of course a privilege to have a great support from our school managers.

Looking forward to seeing our new 3D "toy" soon.
