This contract, awarded to Brightedge Limited, falls under the goods category, specifically diagnostic devices. The contract was signed on 7th May 2026, with a start date of 1st April 2028 and an end date of 31st March 2032. The procurement method utilised was direct, below the threshold, without competition, signifying a straightforward acquisition process likely due to the specialised nature of the equipment.
