Summary of the contracting process

University Hospitals of Derby and Burton NHS Foundation Trust procured a service contract for two ACL TOP analysers, serial numbers 10031085 and 10031102, together with a Modulab System. The equipment is located at Queen’s Hospital Burton. The requirement concerns servicing and support for laboratory, optical and precision equipment, with the principal procurement category being goods. The buyer is an NHS foundation trust based in Derby, serving its hospital operations. The procurement relates specifically to maintaining and supporting named laboratory analysers and the associated Modulab system, rather than supplying general laboratory equipment. Businesses relevant to this requirement are specialist providers of service, maintenance or technical support for ACL TOP analysers, Modulab systems or comparable clinical laboratory equipment.

This procurement has been awarded following an open procedure. The contract was evaluated through a quotation process requiring suppliers to complete a statement of agreement, with NHS terms and conditions applying. Werfen Ltd was awarded the contract on 21 September 2026 for £10,594.91, inclusive of the stated GBP currency. The awarded contract period runs from 22 September 2026 to 23 September 2026. The original requirement described a service-contract period from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2027, while the recorded award gives the shorter contract period above. The tender was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The procurement covered the two ACL TOP analysers and Modulab System at Queen’s Hospital Burton, with no separate lots recorded.

For suppliers that did not win this award, the procurement indicates a focused requirement for specialist support to named ACL TOP analysers and a Modulab System within an NHS hospital environment. A credible competitor for comparable future requirements would need demonstrable capability to service, maintain and support these systems, understand the operational demands of clinical laboratory equipment, and provide clear pricing against a defined service scope. Familiarity with NHS terms and conditions would be commercially relevant, as would the ability to complete the buyer’s required agreement and quotation documentation accurately. The award to Werfen Ltd also shows that the buyer accepted a specialist equipment-service provider for this requirement. Smaller businesses were considered suitable to participate, so capable SMEs may be relevant competitors when this type of need returns.
