Summary of the contracting process

The UK Health Security Agency, acting for the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, procured an additional water filtration system for its Colindale site. The requirement was for a twin water catchpot system in stainless steel, using the V3-2024 design. This is a goods procurement associated with medical equipment and laboratory, optical and precision equipment. The work concerns supplying the filtration system to Colindale, supporting the agency’s operational laboratory or health security activities. The selected supplier was West Technology Systems Limited, an SME based in Gloucester. The requirement is therefore relevant to businesses that manufacture, distribute or install specialist water filtration equipment for public-sector, medical or laboratory environments, particularly systems made to a defined technical design.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. West Technology Systems Limited was selected for the water filtration system. The award was dated 10 August 2026 and recorded a value of £14,352 excluding VAT, or £17,221.40 including VAT. The associated contract was signed on 17 August 2026, with a gross value of £17,222.40 and the same net value of £14,352. The contract period runs from 17 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. One lot was used and marked complete. A further award record names the same supplier but does not state a separate value or award date. The process was below the relevant threshold, with the procurement method recorded as direct award without competition.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for an additional, stainless-steel twin water catchpot filtration system using the V3-2024 design at a UK Health Security Agency site. Businesses that could be credible on a future requirement would need to supply equipment matching precise technical specifications and operate across the boundary between water filtration, medical equipment and laboratory or precision equipment. Product conformity, reliable delivery and the ability to support installation or operational use in a public laboratory environment would be commercially relevant capabilities. The incumbent was an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a specialist smaller supplier rather than only a large national contractor. Suppliers with comparable public-sector or laboratory equipment experience would be well placed to assess similar demand from this buyer.
