Summary of the contracting process

The UK Health Security Agency procured two electrometers, four ion chambers and two adaptors for use as measuring instruments. The requirement is for specialist equipment used to measure ionising radiation, with the associated ion chambers and adaptors providing compatible measurement capability. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. This is a goods procurement rather than a service or construction requirement. The buying organisation is the UK Health Security Agency, a public health body. The equipment requirement is specific and relatively narrow, so relevant businesses are manufacturers, authorised distributors and specialist suppliers of radiation measurement and dosimetry equipment. The stated procurement classification is measuring instruments, with CPV code 38300000. The opportunity was assessed as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, indicating that smaller specialist suppliers were considered capable of meeting the requirement.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. UK Health Security Agency used a selective call-off from a framework agreement, with bids due by 21 August 2026 at 12:00. PTW-UK Limited was awarded the contract on 26 August 2026 for £19,435, with a contract period from 26 August 2026 to 31 December 2026. The awarded amount is the value for this procurement and should not be treated as a wider framework value. There was a single stated requirement covering the two electrometers, four ion chambers and two adaptors, rather than separately described lots. The award is active. The process therefore records a completed framework call-off and an identified supplier, rather than a current competition for new bids.

For a supplier assessing future demand from this buyer, this procurement shows a defined requirement for specialist radiation measurement equipment: electrometers, ion chambers and compatible adaptors. A credible competitor would need dependable access to equipment from suitable manufacturers, the technical knowledge to match electrometers with the required ion chambers and adaptors, and the ability to supply a complete, compatible package rather than isolated components. Experience in radiation measurement, medical physics, dosimetry or related scientific instrumentation would help demonstrate product suitability and reduce compatibility risk. Suppliers should also be able to work through a public-sector framework call-off route and provide clear product specifications, delivery coordination and after-sales support. The buyer considered the requirement suitable for SMEs, so a focused specialist distributor or manufacturer can be commercially relevant alongside larger framework providers.
