Summary of the contracting process

The University of Edinburgh has completed the procurement process for a "Tecniplast 5 Year Service Contract" within the education industry category. This contract pertains to the OEM service provision by Tecniplast UK Ltd for maintaining Tecniplast equipment at the University of Edinburgh. The procurement was executed through a limited method without prior competition, due to the technical specificity and exclusive service provision capability of Tecniplast as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). The contract, valued at £409,099.50, was officially signed on 7th March 2025.

This tender offers a significant opportunity for businesses specializing in OEM services, particularly within the education and technical maintenance sectors.
