Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

GENOMICS ENGLAND LIMITED has completed an extension to its existing contract titled "Testing and Review Strategy", classified under Industry Category 72266000 for Software consultancy services. The additional work is to address delays in the original contract, specifically adding 36 more days for the Test Automation Service. This extension, valued at £32,220 ex VAT, brings the total contract value to £96,660 ex VAT. The procurement process was conducted through a limited award procedure without prior publication, as it remained below the relevant threshold and fell outside the directive's scope. The contract, active since 28th March 2025, involves completion within the UK.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specializing in software consultancy and automated testing services. Companies that excel in providing efficient and reliable test automation solutions could greatly benefit from similar upcoming extensions or new contracts initiated by Genomics England. Given the ongoing need for high-quality testing services in the healthcare and life sciences sectors, businesses with a strong track record in these areas are particularly well-suited to compete and potentially establish long-term partnerships with public sector organisations.

Notice Description

Extension to existing contract for Test Automation Service

Lot Information

Lot 1

The work undertaken under the original contract was delayed, so Genomics England has contracted for an additional 36 days of the Test Automation Service.

Procurement Information

This is an extension to an existing below-threshold contract. The value of the extension (PS32,220 ex VAT) does not take the total contract value over the relevant threshold; the total contract value is now PS96,660 ex VAT. No prior publication was therefore required.
