## Summary

The public procurement process for DNA extraction kits under the title "RBGKEW1393" was conducted by The Board of Trustees of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, a prominent buyer based in London, England. This procurement falls under the industry category of research laboratory services and was executed by a selective procurement method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender, which has now reached the award stage, was valued at £6,000 and conducted with a tender period ending on 16th January 2025, with the contract running from 20th January 2025 to 31st March 2025. The procurement's primary focus was on goods, specifically targeting the delivery address in postal code TW93AE.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in high-fidelity master mixes and related research equipment to grow their market presence by supplying to high-profile institutes like the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. Given that the procurement is suitable for SMEs but not VCSEs, small to medium-sized enterprises with the capacity to meet the research needs of such esteemed organisations would find themselves well-positioned to succeed in similar procurements. The collaboration with a large-scale supplier, Fisher Scientific U.K., Limited, indicates significant business prospects for those aiming to participate in and support research-focused procurement initiatives.
