Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process conducted by East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust focuses on acquiring "Blood Kiosks" within the laboratory glassware sector. The procurement, categorized under goods, was completed using a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition, as the blood kiosks needed to be procured on a like-for-like basis. The contract, awarded to Haemonetics Limited, involves delivery to the UKH14 region. The procurement was finalised with the contract signed on 21st January 2026, valued at £94,068.
