Summary of the contracting process

The UK Health Security Agency, headquartered in London, has completed the award stage of the tender for the "Microplate Washer Integration with Existing Robotic Platforms" project. This procurement falls under the category of medical equipment and involves a selective procurement method, specifically calling-off from a framework agreement. The primary focus is on integrating microplate washers at the Porton Down Laboratory. The contract, valued at £69,775.31, spans from 31st August 2025 to 12th January 2026. Although the tender period concluded on 29th August 2025, the award was finalised and published on 19th September 2025.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in the supply and integration of laboratory equipment, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The UK Health Security Agency’s selection of HAMILTON SALES & SERVICE UK LTD as the supplier highlights the potential for other SMEs to engage in future procurement processes. Organisations with expertise in robotic systems and medical apparatus, especially those that can offer innovative solutions to complex integration tasks, would be well-positioned to compete for similar contracts. Moreover, businesses across the United Kingdom and particularly in regions such as Birmingham, where the supplier is based, can explore growth by leveraging such public procurement opportunities.
