UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust bought laboratory sample-storage and handling equipment: four CPAC ultraflat 12v/4 -70°C four-slot modules in blue, two Inheco Multi TEC control bases, two CPAC adapters for 96-well PCR plates, and installation of upgrades and accessories. This is a specialist laboratory equipment supply with associated installation, classified under electrical materials. The equipment was for delivery in Cambridge, supporting the Trust’s laboratory operations. The requirement combines several compatible components with installation work, so suppliers need to cover the equipment package and its setup rather than supply a single standalone item.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Hamilton Sales & Service UK Ltd. The contract was signed on 30 September 2026 and runs from 2 October 2026 to 1 January 2027. Its value is £18,843.48 excluding VAT, or £22,612.18 including VAT. The purchase was handled as a below-threshold procurement; the procedure is recorded as unknown. It was a single-lot requirement. The award covered the equipment and installation package, with no separate award values or further evaluation basis stated in the available outcome information. The contract is active.

This award shows demand from Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for a bundled laboratory equipment package combining ultra-low-temperature CPAC slot modules, control bases, PCR-plate adapters, and installation of upgrades and accessories. Suppliers competing for comparable work would be well placed if they can provide compatible specialist laboratory equipment and deliver the associated installation and setup as one package. The selected supplier was an SME, showing that this scale of equipment supply and installation can be served by a smaller business. Credibility will depend on demonstrating product compatibility across the components and the technical capability to install upgrades and accessories for a hospital laboratory. The requirement is specific to laboratory storage and sample-handling equipment, rather than general electrical supply.
