Summary of the contracting process

The Animal and Plant Health Agency has completed a procurement process for a Portable Recirculation Fume Hood under the LUPC framework, specifically Lot 3 for safety. The procurement falls under the category of laboratory, optical, and precision equipment, excluding glasses, with a focus on distribution across the United Kingdom and globally. This tender, valued at £13,068, was conducted through a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract period is set to begin on 1st July 2026 and will run until 30th June 2031. The procurement was in the award stage, with the contract being awarded to Wolf Laboratories Limited on 23rd June 2026.

This procurement presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in laboratory equipment, particularly those capable of providing portable fume hoods. Companies looking to expand into public sector contracts can find growth potential in similar tenders. While the process was selective, the preference for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) underscores the potential for smaller businesses to gain access to significant contracts under public frameworks. Businesses already aligned with the requirements of the LUPC framework, or those able to develop such capabilities, stand to benefit significantly.
