Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Public Health Wales NHS Trust bought consumables for its own sexual health testing equipment at Ysbyty Glan Clwyd in Rhyl. The supplies support diagnostic testing for sexual health markers and related analysis within Public Health Wales’s microbiology laboratory network, which provides diagnostic services to Welsh health boards and carries out public health surveillance. Sexual health screening is organised across three testing sites: University Hospital of Wales and Imperial Park Unit 5 in Newport, Ysbyty Glan Clwyd in Rhyl, and Singleton Hospital in Swansea, with specialist virology support from Cardiff. This particular purchase supports the Rhyl site while Public Health Wales conducts a full procurement. The goods category is laboratory reagents and related testing consumables (CPV 33696500).

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Roche Diagnostics Limited; the contract is active and was signed on 22 September 2026. The contract value is £196,362. It was a short-term supply arrangement for one lot, called off from the NHS Supply Chain Laboratory Diagnostics, Point of Care Testing and Pathology Managed Services framework. The buyer used a limited procedure without prior publication of a competition notice. The stated award basis was price. One bid was recorded for the lot. No award date or contract period is provided in the published process data.

This award confirms demand from Public Health Wales for consumables compatible with its own sexual health testing equipment at Ysbyty Glan Clwyd, supporting the Rhyl laboratory’s diagnostic workload. Suppliers competing for the same requirement in future would need to provide the appropriate testing consumables for the buyer’s installed equipment and reliably support sexual health marker analysis and related testing. The arrangement was made through an NHS Supply Chain laboratory diagnostics and pathology managed-services framework, so familiarity with that route would be relevant. The award went to a large diagnostics supplier following a single recorded bid, with price identified as the award basis. A credible competitor would therefore need to demonstrate equipment compatibility, dependable supply and competitive pricing for this short-term, site-specific requirement.
