This process falls under the goods category within the industrial machinery sector. The procurement method employed is a limited award procedure devoid of prior publication, attributed to the extreme urgency arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. Key contract details include a total value of £284,050, with the contract signed on 31 January 2021. This opportunity can significantly contribute to business growth for suppliers of specialised healthcare products and industrial supplies, particularly those capable of delivering essential goods swiftly. SMEs and larger companies engaged in the manufacturing of clinical waste management equipment and related services may find this tender particularly relevant. Given the urgent nature of the procurement, businesses that can ensure rapid delivery and compliance with stringent health and safety standards will be well-positioned to compete. ## Notice Supply of goods between Ezi Dock and DHSC of High containment sealing system for clinical waste bags for operation of high throughput lab in Leamington Spa for Covid 19 testing. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Supply of goods between Ezi Dock and DHSC of High containment sealing system for clinical waste bags for operation of high throughput lab in Leamington Spa for Covid 19 testing. ### Procurement Information Negotiated procedure without prior publication1. The COVID-19 outbreak is a Public Health Emergency of International Concern as declared by the World Health Organisation on 30 January 2020. The WHO Director General characterised COVID-19 as a pandemic on 11 March 2020.2. DHSC is satisfied the tests permitting use of the Negotiated procedure without prior publication (Regulation 32(2)(c)) are met:A: As far as is strictly necessary: This item is a critical component to the clinical waste disposal process at the lab, core to its operation in a safe manner. Without this item, the lab cannot be operational with the void in the sample testing waste disposal process.B: There are genuine reasons for extreme urgency: The Government announced its drive to hit Mass Test Targets of 3,000,000 tests per day by January 2021 and the potentially prolonged impacts of the COVID pandemic if it fails to do so. C: It is impossible to comply with the usual timescales in the PCR: Due to the urgency of the requirement to ensure lab operation within the desired timescales, time doesn't allow to comply with required process under the PCRs. This would not meet the required timescales and as such lab operation as intended would be compromised.D: The situation is not attributable to the contracting authority: This is a niche requirement which can only be achieved via the one supply source (Ezi-Dock) to meet the necessary containment capability to maintain safety and risk standards in these unprecedented times. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/002506-2021 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Limited | | Procurement method details | Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 8 Feb 2021 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 31 Jan 2021 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £284,050 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Cancelled | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND SOCIAL CARE | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1H 0EU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | St James's | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | EZI-DOCK SYSTEMS | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 42 - Industrial machinery ### Codes - 42000000 - Industrial machinery ## Release History - 8 Feb 2021 at 16:10 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/002506-2021 ## Notice URLs - https://www.gov.uk/courts-tribunals - https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/department-of-health-and-social-care ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
