Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process pertains to the purchase of 2 low temperature freezers by the Defra Network eTendering Portal, located in London, England. This procurement falls under the goods category, specifically classified under the CPV code for freezers. The contract was awarded on 22 September 2017, and the contract period is set to run until 21 September 2018. The procurement method utilised was a limited process, allowing for the award of contract without prior publication of a contract notice. The total contract value is £13,950 and the tender was completed as of 15 November 2017.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in the supply of refrigeration equipment, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies with expertise in delivering high-performance freezers and related equipment could compete effectively for similar contracts. As the procurement method was limited, it suggests a more targeted approach, potentially favouring suppliers who can demonstrate reliability and quality within this niche sector.
