Summary of the contracting process

The UK Health Security Agency has completed the procurement process for the “NW Manchester Telepath LIMS annual support 26/27". This contract focuses on data-processing services and is being handled under a restricted procedure due to its above-threshold value. Particularly targeting the industry category of data-processing services, the procurement involves the support of the Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) in the North West Manchester region of the UK, as per the delivery address postal code E14 4PU. The procurement process commenced with a tender, which concluded on 31st March 2026, followed by an award stage on 21st July 2026. The procurement is valued at £121,320.96 for the contract period from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2027.

This tender presents significant opportunities for large-scale businesses specialising in data-processing services, offering a lucrative government contract to expand their footprint in the public sector. While not aimed at SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), businesses such as DH OPCO UK LTD, which have successfully secured the contract, demonstrate the potential for substantial growth and increased credibility in serving high-profile public sector clients. Companies with expertise in providing technical support and management for specialised information management systems are particularly well-suited to participate in similar procurement processes in the future.
