Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process managed by the UK Research and Innovation involves a tender titled "CSP25271 - Fume cupboards," falling under the goods category, specifically fume cupboards (CPV: 39141500). The procurement process has been concluded, signifying the completion stage for this contract. A limited competition procurement method was employed, which is below the usual threshold, restricting bidding to select participants. The fume cupboards are to be delivered across the United Kingdom, with the procurement managed with the assistance of UK Shared Business Services Ltd, serving as the procuring entity. The contract was awarded to Fumair Ltd, commencing from 11th August 2025 and expiring on the 21st October 2025, with the contract value set at £31,762.80 gross (£26,469 net).

This tender presents potential growth opportunities for businesses involved in the manufacturing and supply of laboratory equipment, particularly those specialising in fume cupboards. Suitable contenders would primarily include small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like Fumair Ltd, which are capable of rapidly supplying specialised goods within strict timelines. Additionally, businesses looking to expand their client base within the public sector, or those aiming to establish a footprint within government-linked procurements, would find participating in similar procurement opportunities advantageous. The tailored procurement approach indicating a limited competition may also appeal to niche market players capable of catering to specific technical requirements.
