Summary of the contracting process

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, located in Cambridge, UK, has completed the procurement process for a "Maintenance Contract" specifically covering maintenance and calibration services for pipettes. This falls under the category of repair and maintenance services within the services industry. The procurement process has reached the award stage, with relevant documentation available from 10th September 2025. The contract is set to run from 10th September 2025 to 9th September 2026, with a gross value of £16,200. The tender was conducted using a below-threshold procurement method, adhering to the legal framework established by UK legislation in 2023.

This awarded contract presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in maintenance services, particularly those with experience in laboratory equipment upkeep. Large firms, such as Sartorius UK Ltd—already involved as the supplier—are well-suited to compete in such contracts, especially given the technical requirements and specific skill sets needed to fulfil the contract's obligations. Businesses aiming to expand their footprint in health sector maintenance services would find similar future tender opportunities beneficial for growth and establishing long-term relationships with prominent healthcare institutions like the NHS.
