The procurement, classified under the "goods" category, specifically targets laboratory and precision equipment. This contract, with an award and contract completion date of 5th January 2026, commenced on 6th January 2026 and concludes by 31st January 2026. The value of the contract amounts to £26,210.13, exclusive of VAT. The procurement stage is completed, and the contract has been awarded to Sartorius UK Ltd, located in Epsom.
