## Summary

UK Health Security Agency procured a supply contract for laboratory consumables for use in its laboratories across the UK. The requirement is classified as diagnostic supplies (CPV 33124130) and falls within the goods category. The listed delivery address is the agency’s premises at 10 South Colonnade, London, E14 4PU, with the wider requirement covering UKHSA laboratories. This is a specialist consumables supply opportunity rather than laboratory construction, equipment installation or professional services. Businesses relevant to this requirement are manufacturers, distributors and specialist suppliers able to provide laboratory consumables and support their delivery to a public health laboratory network. The buyer is UK Health Security Agency, with its Commercial Operations function responsible for the procurement.

The procurement has been completed and awarded to DON WHITLEY SCIENTIFIC LIMITED. The award date was 26 August 2026, for a value of £100,000. The contract runs from 26 August 2026 to 26 August 2027. The tender submission deadline was 19 August 2026 at 12:00. The procurement method is recorded as “Other”. The requirement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. It was evaluated through a tender process, but the published information does not set out the award criteria or weighting. There are no lots recorded, so the award covers the laboratory consumables requirement as a single procurement. The selected supplier is an SME and is based in Bingley, West Yorkshire.

This award demonstrates demand from UKHSA for a managed supply of laboratory consumables supporting diagnostic and public health laboratory work. A credible future competitor would need dependable access to suitable consumable products, consistent product quality and the operational capacity to supply laboratories across the UK. The requirement is suitable for SMEs, indicating that scale alone is not the only route to credibility; a specialist distributor or manufacturer with reliable fulfilment, responsive account management and experience serving laboratory customers could be relevant. Suppliers should be able to understand the practical needs of diagnostic laboratories, maintain continuity of supply and meet public-sector purchasing requirements. Don Whitley Scientific’s selection shows that a specialist SME can win this type of UKHSA goods contract.
