Summary of the contracting process

The University of Glasgow has finalised the tender process for the provision of diet, bedding, enrichment, and ancillary goods for small animal, avian, and aquatic species under the title PURCH2264. The tender falls under the Goods category within the Animal products and related products industry. The procurement was executed through an open procedure, aiming to source a variety of products to support the care and welfare of animals used in biomedical research. The contracts cover three lots: Lot 1 for diet products, Lot 2 for bedding and enrichment, and Lot 3 for diet, bedding, and enrichment for aquatics and amphibious species. The procurement stage has concluded with contracts awarded to multiple suppliers including Datesand Ltd, D B M Scotland Ltd, Inotiv UK Ltd, and IPS Product Solutions. The total contract value amounts to £564,000, comprising £248,000 for Lot 1, £216,000 for Lot 2, and £100,000 for Lot 3, with contracts signed on 9 January 2025 and deliveries to be made to Glasgow (UKM82).
