## Summary

The procurement process, initiated by Public Health England, involves the awarding of a contract for the provision of Rapid Containment Kits, essential for microbiological diagnostics and research amidst emerging epidemics. This contract falls under the category of laboratory, optical, and precision equipment, with a total value of £110,494. The contract period spans from 12th March 2018 to 29th March 2019, and the open procedure tender ended on the same date as the contract award, 12th March 2018. The delivery location is in Salisbury, South West England.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in laboratory equipment and containment technologies, particularly those capable of handling high-risk materials. Companies that manufacture or supply critical safety equipment and isolation solutions, similar to OWR GmbH, would be well-suited to compete for future contracts in this vital sector. Engaging with public health organisations can lead to substantial growth potential, especially as the demand for high-quality containment solutions continues to rise in response to global health threats.

## Notice

Due to the high virulence of many pathogens in emerging epidemics it is essential for PHE microbiology to purchase a containment facility to provide a safe working environment for microbiological diagnostics and research. This is facilitated by the glove box, a portable isolator providing a safe working environment which allows the safe handling of dangerous pathogens such as Ebola. OWR GmbH are the only supplier capable of providing the required Rapid Containment Kits. Therefore the decision was made to award a PHE wide contract for the Rapid Containment Kits to OWR GmbH .
