## Summary

The procurement process involves Public Health England (PHE) awarding a contract for the provision of TPPA kits, essential for syphilis confirmation testing. This contract, valued at £50,000, was awarded on 16 April 2020 as part of the selective procurement method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract covers delivery locations including the United Kingdom and regions beyond, with the contract period running until 16 April 2021. This announcement was published on 22 July 2020, marking the completion of the procurement stage for this essential public health service.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses, particularly those in the medical supplies sector, as it emphasizes the need for reliable suppliers capable of providing specialised medical kits. Companies that offer similar testing kits or have capabilities in medical product supply chains, especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs), would be well-suited to engage in future procurements such as this. Collaborations or innovative solutions in medical technology could further enhance their competitiveness in upcoming tenders.

## Notice

PHE Awarded a short term contract via Direct Award under Lot 1 of PHE Microbiology Framework for the supply of Syphilis confirmation testing via Treponema pallidum particle agglutination assay (TPPA) to MAST Group Ltd. in order to ensure the continuity of service. PHE is required to continue its operations and for continuity of business, to provide public health services, PHE believes that currently this requirement for TPPA can temporarily be sourced only via Mast Group Ltd as a sole supplier for the region.
