The procurement process involves Public Health England (PHE) awarding a contract for the provision of a Large Procedural Flexible Film Isolator (FFI) to Bell Isolation Systems Ltd. This procurement falls under the goods category, specifically laboratory benching (CPV code: 39181000), and took place in London, England. The tender was awarded on 4th February 2021, with the contract spanning from 5th February 2021 to 4th February 2022.
