Summary of the contracting process

Cell Therapy Catapult Limited procured the supply and installation of a gas wing system at Guy’s Hospital in London. The work combines laboratory furniture and installation of laboratory equipment, providing a dedicated gas wing for the Catapult’s hospital-based operations. The requirement covers both supplying the system and installing it; the procurement describes the installation location as Guy’s Hospital. This is a facilities and laboratory fit-out requirement rather than a general gas supply contract. The buyer is Cell Therapy Catapult Limited, a public authority. The awarded supplier is a large company based in Oxford, reflecting a requirement for a supplier able to provide and install specialist laboratory infrastructure.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Waldner Ltd. Cell Therapy Catapult Limited used a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 1 October 2026 and runs from 1 January to 31 January 2027. Its value is £51,642 excluding VAT (£61,971 including VAT). The procurement was treated as a single lot, covering the gas wing system supply and installation at Guy’s Hospital. The award records the supplier and the laboratory furniture and equipment installation categories; no scored evaluation criteria are stated. The contract is active. The process therefore records a completed award and an active contract, rather than an open competition for suppliers to enter.

For suppliers considering similar work for Cell Therapy Catapult, this award shows demand for a combined supply-and-install service for specialist laboratory facilities at a hospital site. A credible competitor would need to source or provide suitable laboratory furniture and gas-wing infrastructure, coordinate delivery to a clinical or research setting, and complete installation as an integrated package. The awarded supplier is a large Oxford-based business, indicating that the buyer selected a supplier with the organisational capacity to deliver the combined requirement. Relevant capability is therefore in laboratory fit-out and equipment installation, with experience managing site-based installation work; general gas supply alone would not match the recorded scope. The award followed a direct, non-competitive route, so it provides evidence of the type and scale of requirement Cell Therapy Catapult buys, not evidence of a competitive evaluation model.
