Summary of the contracting process

The Common Services Agency (NHS National Services Scotland) is currently at the award stage of the procurement process for the supply and delivery of Altona Diagnostic UK Limited’s Assay for SARS-CoV2 testing. This contract, valued at £1,200,000, was finalised on 18 March 2020, and aims to address urgent needs arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. The procurement method used was a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, justified by the extreme urgency caused by unforeseen events. The location for delivery is Scotland, and the primary industry category for this procurement is health.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for large-scale suppliers in the health industry, particularly those involved in diagnostic testing and medical supplies. Businesses with expertise in delivering health-related goods and services, especially in a timely manner during emergencies, will be well-positioned to compete in future tenders of a similar nature.
