Summary of the contracting process

The University of Dundee has awarded a one-off contract, titled "One-off Contract for the Supply of Screening Compounds," within the education industry category. The contract, valued at £70,000, was signed on 17th March 2025, and SIA Chemspace has been selected as the supplier. The procurement method employed was limited, specifically an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. This approach was taken as the screening compounds were uniquely manufactured for a research project and had already been pre-ordered through a collaboration. The delivery location for the goods is the University of Dundee, situated in Dundee, UKM71.

This tender represents an excellent opportunity for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) involved in the production and supply of specialised compounds for research purposes. Given the nature of the procurement, businesses capable of providing highly specialised and pre-ordered compounds would find this tender particularly suitable. The process highlights the importance of being involved in collaborative projects to access opportunities without the need for open competition, providing a strategic advantage for businesses in similar fields aiming to grow through specialised contracts.
