Summary of the contracting process

Cell Therapy Catapult Limited procured electronic components, electrical materials, tools and fixings for CGTC BMIC under the LAB3152 NW electronic components framework. The requirement is categorised as the supply of electrical components and tools. Delivery covered the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West of England. The buyer is a public body governed by public law working in health. The requirement relates to goods supply rather than installation, construction or a separately described technical service. Suppliers serving organisations involved in health, research or advanced manufacturing may find the purchasing context relevant, particularly where they can provide a broad range of electronic materials and tools across England.

The procurement is complete and the call-off was awarded to Rexel UK Limited, the highest-ranked supplier for Lot 2 under the NWUPC Electronic Components Framework Agreement. It used a limited direct-award procedure without a separate competition; the framework permitted award to the top-ranked supplier. Price was the stated evaluation criterion, and one bid was recorded. The contract was signed on 7 July 2026 and is active, with a value of £180,000 excluding VAT. The planned term is one year, with options to extend by a further year and then another year. The single lot is marked cancelled in the tender data, while the award and contract are recorded as active.

This award demonstrates demand from Cell Therapy Catapult Limited for a combined supply of electronic components, electrical materials, tools and fixings serving CGTC BMIC across England. A credible future competitor would need dependable access to a broad product range, reliable distribution and the capacity to deliver to sites across all English regions covered by the requirement. The route to market is significant: the buyer used the NWUPC Electronic Components Framework Agreement and selected the highest-ranked supplier for a direct award, so framework access and ranking would be central to competing through the same mechanism. Suppliers should also be able to offer commercially competitive pricing, since price was the stated evaluation basis.
