Summary of the contracting process

The University of Birmingham is currently conducting a tender for the provision of flow cytometry instrumentation and reagents for its Haemato-Oncology Diagnostic Service, classified under the goods category. This open procurement process, with the tender period closing on 10 August 2021, seeks to acquire at least two advanced clinical flow cytometers along with modern pre-analytical sample processing systems. Suppliers are required to present responses detailing instrumentation, software, reagents, maintenance, and training options. The contract is set to span from 10 September 2021 to 9 September 2026, with the delivery address located in Birmingham, England.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in clinical laboratory equipment and reagents, particularly those offering innovative flow cytometers and automation solutions. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate as they may meet the specific requirement for demonstration and trial runs of their products. Suppliers with capabilities in instrumentation maintenance and training services will also find this opportunity well-suited for growth, as the University aims to enhance its diagnostic capabilities in clinical immunology over the next 5-10 years.
