The procurement was conducted directly with Medscience Distribution Ltd, classified as a small or medium-sized enterprise, located in the Wildmere Industrial Estate, Oxfordshire. This procurement was carried out below the threshold without competition, under the legal framework of UKPGA 2023/54. The contract, valued at £96,470 gross, was signed on 18th July 2025 and took effect immediately, with the completion date set for 31st December 2026.
