## Summary

The UK Health Security Agency has completed the procurement process for the "Manchester Telepath LIMS Annual Support," focusing on software packages and information systems under the CPV classification. Located in England, United Kingdom, the procurement employed a direct method through a single tender action that was below the threshold. The tender involved the delivery of instruments enabling data transfer to a Laboratory Information Management System, with DH OPCO Ltd (Dedalus) providing the necessary interface support.

This procurement represents an opportunity for businesses specialising in information systems and software packages to understand the agency's procurement needs and potentially identify future collaborative opportunities.
