## Summary

The Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) procured three Mediajet plate-pouring dispensers for dispensing culture media into agar plates. This is a laboratory equipment supply requirement, rather than a service or works contract. Delivery is identified in the North East and South East of England. The equipment supports laboratory work that uses agar plates; the procurement description does not specify individual laboratories or further technical requirements. APHA is the buying organisation. The requirement was for three machines supplied as a single procurement, with no separate lots identified.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Wolf Laboratories Limited. The award was made on 19 October 2026, for £54,463.12. The contract period runs from 19 October 2026 to 21 November 2027. The requirement was procured as a call-off from a framework agreement using a selective process. The tender submission deadline was 16 October 2026 at 12:00. The published information identifies no separate lots. It records the purchase of three dispensers and a single supplier award; it does not describe evaluation criteria or provide eligibility requirements for the original competition. The tender was marked complete and the award is active.

This award shows demand from APHA for specialist laboratory equipment used to pour culture media into agar plates. Suppliers seeking to compete for a comparable requirement would need to supply Mediajet dispensers or equipment meeting the buyer’s technical needs, and provide delivery into both the North East and South East of England. The single award for three machines indicates a requirement of modest equipment-supply scale, rather than a large service operation. The route used was a call-off from a framework agreement, so relevant framework access and the ability to fulfil call-off requirements would be important to competing through the same route. The selected supplier was Wolf Laboratories Limited, demonstrating that a laboratory equipment supplier was chosen for this requirement.
