Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the supply of Printed Circuit Board Assemblies (PCBAs) has reached the award stage. Organised by the Centre for Process Innovation Limited, based in Redcar, the tender seeks to establish a multi-supplier framework primarily to support the HealthTech Technology Team. The awarded suppliers, UK Electronics Limited from Oldham and Tioga from Derby, will adhere to ISO 13485 standards for medical device projects. The contract, valued at £160,000 (gross value: £192,000), spans from 22 April 2026 to 19 April 2030. This open competition was completed under a below-threshold procurement method, with the award marking the closing phase of the tender process. Key details were published in April 2026, following preliminary planning and tender notices in 2025 and March 2026, respectively.

This framework offers significant business growth opportunities, particularly for electrical component manufacturers capable of meeting stringent traceability requirements. The emphasis on compliance with ISO 13485 standards opens doors for firms experienced in medical device quality management systems, fostering potential collaborations with sub-central government entities like CPI. Large-scale suppliers accustomed to component traceability and regulated environments, especially in HealthTech, will find this framework particularly suitable. By participating, businesses not only contribute to the advancement of technology units across CPI but also fortify their standing in the competitive landscape of PCB assembly supply.
