Summary of the contracting process

The Food Standards Agency (FSA), based in York, has recently completed the procurement process for the "Provision of Trichinella Testing Kit 2024 - 2029" contract under the classification of laboratory services (CPV code: 71900000). The competitive quotation process, categorised as limited procurement, was concluded with an award on 24th April 2024. This procurement cycle has been finalised with the award valued at £164,475, encompassing the provision of consumables to support trichinella testing services across England and Wales, with the contract period extending from 1st July 2024 to 30th June 2029.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for suppliers in the laboratory services sector, notably those specialising in testing kits and related consumables. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to engage with this type of procurement, given the FSA’s suitability criteria favour such organisations. Businesses involved in laboratory consumables, particularly those capable of supplying to legislative standards in both European and UK contexts, would find potential for growth through future collaborations with government organisations like the FSA.
