Summary of the contracting process

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA), based in London, has completed a public procurement process titled "Topspeed" within the courier services industry, classified under CPV code 64120000. This procurement, which utilised a selective procurement method involving a call-off from a framework agreement, was awarded on 27th March 2024. The contract period began on 1st April 2024 and will conclude on 31st March 2025, with a total contract value of £273,627. The primary delivery location is within the United Kingdom, specifically postal code SW1H 0EU. The tender was in the award stage when published, as noted on 14th November 2025.

This opportunity provides significant potential for growth for businesses in the courier and logistics sectors, specifically those capable of forming strategic partnerships within the framework agreements. Though Topspeed Couriers Limited, a small or medium-sized enterprise (SME), secured the contract, other SMEs with the ability to efficiently manage courier services could similarly benefit from future opportunities like this. Participation in such framework agreements can enhance visibility and credibility in the public sector, opening doors to further contracts and collaborations.
