UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, through the UK Health Security Agency, has completed the procurement of Parker Valairdata 4 Test Sets. This tender falls under the industry category of checking and testing apparatus, located in London, United Kingdom, and involves validating airflow and HEPA vent filters in controlled environments. The procurement process is classified as limited competition, with one lot awarded. The contract started on 3rd March 2026 and will end on 2nd March 2027, with the total gross amount being £77,243.88.

This opportunity presents significant growth potential for businesses specialising in testing and validation equipment, particularly those supplying high-tech goods to government agencies. BioPharma Dynamics LTD, a small to medium-sized enterprise, succeeded as the supplier, suggesting that SMEs with specialised testing apparatus could effectively compete for similar contracts. Companies involved in manufacturing or distributing advanced testing equipment, especially those able to provide unique or sole-manufacturer products, would find similar tender opportunities beneficial for expanding their market presence and forging strong partnerships with public authority central government bodies.
