Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation (UKRI), based in Swindon, Wiltshire, has recently completed the procurement process for the provision of Clinical Waste Disposal Services at its Laboratory of Molecular Biology (LMB) facility. This procurement, referenced as UKRI-5602, falls under the services category and follows an open procedure. The contract, initiated through a tender, involves Vetspeed Ltd T/A Novus Environmenta as the supplier. Located in Cambridgeshire, this contract covers services classified under clinical-waste collection with the possibility of an extension from the initial two years up to a total of five years including renewal periods. The contract was signed on 16th June 2026, with a gross value amounting to £450,000, and it is set to span until 30th June 2028, with potential extensions until 2031.

This procurement offers substantial opportunities for businesses within the clinical waste management sector, particularly those capable of handling large-scale contracts with public authorities. Companies looking to expand their portfolio within the healthcare waste disposal industry can benefit from engaging with contracts similar to this, providing specialised services to governmental bodies. The involvement in such high-value contracts can aid businesses in gaining credibility and experience needed to compete in future procurement projects, paving the way for business development and growth. Larger enterprises, especially those already involved in service categories designated for clinical waste, are well-positioned to compete in this domain.
