Summary of the contracting process

The contracting process involved Northumbria Healthcare Facilities Management, a public authority related to central government located in North Shields, United Kingdom. The procurement process pertained to the award and contract stage for the purchase of an aerosol photometer and generator, classified under laboratory, optical, and precision equipment. The procurement method used was 'limited', indicating below-threshold competition. The contract, signed on 11th February 2026, is active from that day until 4th March 2026, with an estimated gross value of £19,293.60. The award was made to Air Techniques International Ltd, a large-scale supplier based in Letchworth Garden City.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in laboratory, optical, and precision equipment to engage with a central government buyer. Companies with expertise in developing or supplying aerosol photometers and generators would be particularly well-suited to similar future opportunities. Participation in such tenders can pave the way for building a reputation in supplying high-quality goods to public healthcare sectors, enhancing business growth and expanding market presence within the UK. The limited procurement method suggests that smaller and specialised businesses may also compete in similar opportunities with lesser competition barriers.
