## Summary

Public Health England has awarded a contract titled "Provision of adaptors for Sarstedt blood culture kits" in the healthcare industry, specifically under the goods category for test tubes. The procurement process was conducted through a limited procurement method, resulting in an award without prior publication of a contract notice. The contract is valued at £55,000 and will run from 20th March 2018 to 31st March 2019. The contract was officially awarded on 20th March 2018, following the completion of the tender period that ended on 19th March 2018.

This tender presents an opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that supply medical goods and laboratory equipment, specifically those with capabilities in manufacturing or distributing blood culture adaptors. Businesses that excel in supply chain logistics and have expertise in the healthcare sector would be particularly well-suited to compete for future opportunities, especially considering Public Health England's plans to run additional competitions for adaptors aligned with other medical requirements.
