UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA), acting on behalf of the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, is in the planning stage of a procurement process for the purchase of a bespoke TLD Wrapper machine, intended for installation at its Chilton campus in Didcot. The procurement falls under the 'goods' category, specifically targeting dosimetry systems and dosimeters. UKHSA is currently conducting preliminary market engagement to identify potential suppliers, and the deadline for responses to the Request for Information (RFI) is set for 19th August 2025. The procurement is scheduled to proceed with further notices by 1st September 2025, and the contract period is expected to start on 1st October 2025, ending on 30th September 2026.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in dosimetry and related technologies to provide advanced equipment for health and security applications. Given the specific nature of the goods in question, companies possessing expertise in designing and producing dosimeters or radiotherapy equipment are ideally positioned to compete. The engagement process allows other qualified suppliers aside from the initially identified MGE Automation Limited, offering them a platform to establish themselves within the public sector market. Engaging in this procurement could significantly bolster a company's profile by aligning with government health and safety initiatives.
