## Summary

The Medicines Discovery Catapult is inviting tenders for the "IMPACTT PROJECT - The Supply and Delivery of COVID-19 Samples" throughout the UK, focusing on medical equipment and pharmaceutical products.

Interested parties should submit their proposals by 15 April 2021, with the first set of samples required no later than 30 June 2021. The procurement method is an expedited open procedure due to the urgent need for SARS-CoV-2 patient samples as part of a study on immune profiling.
