## Summary

The UK Health Security Agency procured laboratory reagents and related scientific consumables under the AB Scientific Consumables Contract. The requirement supports the agency’s scientific and public health work, with delivery to its premises at 10 South Colonnade, London, E14 4PU, United Kingdom. The procurement is for goods rather than construction or general professional services. The named buyer is the UK Health Security Agency. The classification is laboratory reagents (CPV 33696500), indicating a requirement for specialist consumable materials used in laboratory activity. The contract is associated with Ab Scientific Ltd as the selected supplier. Businesses active in laboratory supply, scientific consumables distribution or reagent provision will find this the most relevant type of requirement, particularly those able to serve a public health agency from the United Kingdom.

This procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective call-off from a framework agreement rather than an open standalone competition. The tender submission deadline was 17 August 2026 at 12:00. The tender’s stated estimated value was £25,000, while the active award to Ab Scientific Ltd was valued at £50,000. The award date was 18 August 2026. The contract period runs from 18 August 2026 to 17 August 2027. The award covers the laboratory reagent and scientific consumables requirement for the UK Health Security Agency. The process records the tender as complete and the award as active. The procurement was not identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises. No separate lots or multiple awards are recorded.

This award demonstrates an established requirement for laboratory reagents and scientific consumables within the UK Health Security Agency, serving laboratory and public health operations in London. A credible future competitor would need dependable access to relevant reagent and consumables ranges, strong product knowledge and the operational capacity to fulfil repeat public-sector orders. Experience of supplying laboratories, health-security bodies or comparable scientific organisations would help demonstrate understanding of controlled, specification-led purchasing. Suppliers should also be able to work through framework call-off arrangements, manage accurate ordering and delivery, and provide consistent availability and traceability across a broad consumables requirement. Ab Scientific Ltd is recorded as an SME, showing that specialist smaller suppliers can satisfy the requirement, although the procurement itself was not marked as SME-suitable. The opportunity is most relevant to established scientific distributors and reagent specialists.
