Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, led by Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, pertains to the acquisition of customised laboratory workstations. This contract falls under the 'goods' category, specifically laboratory furniture, and is classified within the public authority sector - central government. The procurement process reached the award stage on 21st January 2026, with a prior contract signing date on 7th January 2026. The project's location is in Cambridge, United Kingdom, specifically in the UKH12 region. The procurement was conducted through a 'below threshold' method, with the total contract value amounting to £31,680.40 and inclusive of VAT totalling £38,016.48.

This tender represents a growth opportunity for businesses involved in the manufacturing and supply of laboratory furniture, particularly those with a capability to provide customised solutions. Large-scale businesses, such as IQ Workspace Ltd, which was awarded the contract, demonstrate suitability in meeting the specific needs of the buyer, due to their capacity for scaling production and handling bespoke requirements. This contract, therefore, offers a competitive advantage to businesses that can deliver high-quality, tailored laboratory fittings promptly.
