UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process titled "Lab Consumables" was managed by Medicines Discovery Catapult Limited, a sub-central government public authority. The procurement, focusing on the goods category, specifically medical consumables, has been completed using a direct procurement method classified as below threshold without competition. The contract, awarded to Charles River U.K. Limited, covers delivery locations across multiple regions in the United Kingdom. The procurement process concluded with the contract signed on 2nd December 2025, with the contract period running from 19th January 2026 to 19th February 2026, for a total value of £24,567 GBP.

This opportunity for supplying lab consumables presents a growth potential for businesses specialising in medical consumables and related supplies. Companies in this sector, particularly those that can meet specific biological sample requirements, may benefit from keeping abreast of similar opportunities. SMEs like Charles River U.K. Limited, which can deliver goods across diverse geographic locations, are well-positioned to capitalise on such tenders. The procurement's direct method without competition and its sub-threshold nature suggest that smaller, nimble enterprises could effectively engage with similar future opportunities.
