Summary of the contracting process

CPI (Centre for Process Innovation) purchased an Agilent 5200 fragment analyser, a laboratory analytical instrument used to analyse and characterise fragments. The procurement is for goods rather than services or works, under the broader category of analysers (CPV 38434000). Delivery is associated with CPI’s Wilton Centre site in Wilton, Redcar, North Yorkshire, postcode TS10 4RF, and the stated delivery coverage also includes the United Kingdom and several wider territories and locations. This is a specialist laboratory equipment requirement for suppliers able to provide the specified Agilent instrument, rather than a general laboratory consumables or maintenance contract.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a tender process using a method described as “Other”. The submission deadline was 29 July 2026 at 10:21. The contract was awarded on 29 July 2026 to North East Laboratory Supplies. Its awarded value is £136,297.56 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 30 July 2026 to 29 July 2027. CPI’s suitability assessment marked the opportunity as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The award is active, and the procurement record identifies one selected supplier. The requirement was evaluated through the tender process, with the purchase of the specified fragment analyser forming the defined scope.

This award indicates demand from CPI for high-value, specialist laboratory analysis equipment and shows that the requirement was fulfilled by a dedicated laboratory supplies business. Suppliers considering future work with this buyer would need credible capability to source and supply Agilent 5200 fragment analysers, understand the technical requirements of laboratory users, and manage delivery to CPI’s Wilton Centre operation. Relevant experience in laboratory instrumentation, manufacturer relationships, equipment logistics and accurate technical quotation would strengthen a future proposition. The opportunity is better suited to established specialist suppliers with the resources to handle a substantial single-equipment purchase than to general office-equipment distributors. Businesses monitoring CPI should treat this purchase as a useful indicator of the type and scale of laboratory equipment it procures.
