Summary of the contracting process

The Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl) has recently completed a direct procurement process for the supply and delivery of a Chromium X Kit and consumables, valued at GBP 48,194. The procurement, classified under the industry category of basic inorganic and organic chemicals, was conducted through a single tender action, indicating it was below the threshold for competitive tendering. The contract, awarded on 21 March 2025, covers delivery to the Dstl location in Salisbury, England, and is set to conclude by 31 March 2025.

This procurement represents a strategic opportunity for businesses involved in the production and supply of scientific kits and consumables, particularly those specialising in inorganic and organic chemicals. While this tender was awarded to 10 X Genomics Inc, large-scale suppliers with the capacity to fulfil such specialised requirements could find similar opportunities in future procurements by Dstl and similar organisations. Engaging in such tenders can offer valuable business growth prospects for companies equipped to meet stringent technical specifications and delivery timelines.
