Summary of the contracting process

Sheffield City Council has awarded a contract titled "Toxicology Contract 2025 - 2029" under the industry category of medical laboratory services (CPV code: 85145000). This contract, which was finalised through a direct award process, covers the period from 16 January 2025 to 15 January 2029. The procurement process was led by Marc Symonds of Sheffield City Council. The contract is valued at £425,000 and will be delivered in the Yorkshire and the Humber region of the United Kingdom. The decision to enter into this contract was made on 9 January 2025, with the contract award being published on 16 January 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in providing medical laboratory services, particularly those capable of delivering high-quality toxicology services. The value and duration of the contract offer stability and potential for sustained income over four years. Although this specific contract has been awarded to South Yorkshire & Bassetlaw Pathology (hosted by Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust), similar future opportunities could be well-suited for large-scale medical service providers capable of handling extensive and specialised laboratory work. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) may not find this particular tender suitable due to its scale and requirements.
