Summary of the contracting process

The Sheffield City Council has completed the procurement process for the "Toxicology Contract 2025 - 2029", focusing on services provided by medical laboratories. The procurement was awarded through a limited process without prior publication of a call for competition, under the Provider Selection Regime Direct Award Process C, due to the contract falling outside the scope of the directive. The contract, valued at £425,000 GBP, was signed on 16 January 2025. The procurement category is "services" and the delivery region is UKE32, Sheffield, United Kingdom. The tender was officially awarded to South Yorkshire & Bassetlaw Pathology, hosted by Sheffield Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. The decision to enter into this contract was made by the delegated authority officer on 09 January 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses in the medical laboratory services industry. As the contract spans from 2025 to 2029, businesses specialising in toxicology services and possessing the capability to handle long-term contracts would find this opportunity advantageous. Furthermore, companies that can deliver high-quality services at competitive prices would be well-suited to compete for similar future contracts. Leveraging the expertise and infrastructure already established in the region, such businesses can significantly expand their operational scope and market presence.
