Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves Sellafield Limited, represented by the CTM Portal for the NDA Shared Services Alliance, which has recently completed a contract titled "Lateral Flow Testing" within the medical supplies industry. This procurement was primarily focused on the delivery of lateral flow testing kits, related training, and medical support, with a contract value of £500,000. The procurement method used was a limited award procedure due to the extreme urgency created by the coronavirus pandemic, resulting in no prior publication of a call for competition. The main delivery location for this contract was in the UKD1 region, and the contract was signed on 10th February 2021.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in medical supplies and healthcare services, particularly those specialising in testing kits and related medical support. Companies with a proven ability to respond promptly to urgent needs, similar to Moore MedTech Limited, which was awarded this contract, would be well-suited to compete. Businesses that can demonstrate quality and cost-effectiveness in their offerings may find valuable prospects in future tenders of this nature, especially given the ongoing demand for health-related solutions in the wake of the pandemic.

The scope of work is to supply Lateral Flow Testing kits, training and medical support for Sellafield Limited employees.

Procurement Information

A competition for this contract is not available due to the extreme urgency brought about by the coronavirus pandemic, unforeseeable to Sellafield Limited. The coronavirus pandemic is so novel that the consequences could not have been predicted. The usual timescales for competitions under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 could not be complied with, because immediate access to lateral flow testing kits was required to support Sellafield Limited's commitment to the safety of its employees, including ensuring that the minimum safe manning criteria is maintained on site for essential high hazard and risk reduction activities. Moore Med Tech is party to other similar contracts with large scale organisations such as; BBC, Co-op. Moore Med Tech was identified as having the necessary capability and technology to provide lateral flow tests available for home use as opposed to the HUB deployment methodology without delay.
