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 London Food, Water and Environmental Microbiology Services laboratory. The requirement was for a Twin Water Catchpot, stainless steel, V3 design (2024). This is a specialist laboratory equipment supply rather than a construction or general facilities-management service. The delivery location is the Colindale laboratory in London. The procurement falls within medical equipment, pharmaceuticals and personal care products. Businesses relevant to this requirement include manufacturers, authorised distributors and specialist suppliers of water filtration or laboratory water-treatment systems capable of supplying equipment suitable for microbiology laboratory operations.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. There was one lot. WEST TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS LIMITED was awarded the contract on 10 August 2026 for £14,352 excluding VAT, or £17,221.40 including VAT. The contract period is 17 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. A contract signature milestone was scheduled for 14 August 2026. The award is recorded as active. Evaluation was conducted through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender, so the published outcome identifies the selected supplier and requirement but does not set out competing bids or weighted evaluation criteria.

This award shows that the UK Health Security Agency buys discrete, additional water-filtration equipment for a specialist public-sector microbiology laboratory, using a direct below-threshold purchasing route. A credible supplier for a future requirement of this kind would need to provide the specified Twin Water Catchpot configuration, including stainless-steel construction and the V3 2024 design, and demonstrate that the system is appropriate for laboratory water use. Relevant strengths would include manufacturer or authorised-distributor status, reliable equipment sourcing, technical understanding of filtration systems, and the capacity to support delivery and implementation for a government laboratory. Suppliers should also be prepared to respond to direct-award purchasing requirements and public-sector contractual administration.
