OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Police Authority (SPA) has completed the award process for the renewal of the servicing contract for its Drug Extraction Systems. This contract, identified as PROC-22-1887, pertains to the Biotage® Extrahera Automated Sample Preparation System located in Glasgow (region UKM82). The contract, valued at £80,435.70, was awarded to Biotage Sweden AB, the original equipment manufacturer, given the unique and trademarked nature of the technology. The procurement followed a non-competitive action due to the lack of alternate suppliers capable of servicing this specialized equipment. The initial contract period is three years, with an optional extension, aiming to support the resilience of SPA's toxicology service. The procurement stage is at 'Award' with the contract signed on 5th September 2024.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses involved in highly specialised servicing and maintenance of forensic and toxicology equipment. Companies with expertise in trademarked and proprietary technologies, especially those related to biochemical and drug extraction systems, would be quintessential candidates for such contracts. Participation in similar contracts can position these businesses as preferred service providers for highly technical and critical public safety equipment, fostering long-term relationships with public bodies such as the Scottish Police Authority.
