Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the purchase of two Spectrophotometers, titled "Nanodrop (Spectrophotometer)," was conducted by Cell Therapy Catapult Limited, a prominent buyer located in Stevenage, England. This contract falls under the biomedical equipment category, with a total value of £20,000. The procurement method utilised was a direct tender via a single tender action, as it was below the threshold for competitive tendering. The award was made on 19th November 2020, with the contract period running until 18th November 2021. The tender period concluded on 19th October 2020.

This contract presents a valuable opportunity for businesses in the biomedical and laboratory equipment sector to engage with a leading organisation in the healthcare industry.
