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 a procurement process under the title "High containment shipment to the USA." The procurement involves the international shipment of Category A materials for an authorised research programme. The buying organisation is based in London, United Kingdom and operates under the central government public authority. The procurement method used was direct, below threshold without competition, and the award was made on 30th June 2026. This contract covers the main procurement category of services, with the delivery region being the UK and the industry classification as transport services, excluding waste transport. The contract period is from 30th June 2026 to 31st July 2026, with a gross value of £92,160.

This tender presents significant opportunities for logistics companies, particularly those specialising in high-containment transport services, to gain valuable experience partnering with a key governmental health agency. With the procurement process already awarded to Clover Global Logistics, a large-scale supplier based in Middlesex, this highlights a potential model for similar businesses in the logistics domain aiming to expand their portfolio and expertise in international, specialised transport services tied to governmental projects. Businesses with proven capabilities in handling sensitive materials would be well-suited to similar future tenders.
