## Summary

The Southern Health & Social Care Trust, based in Portadown, United Kingdom, has completed a tender process for the procurement of SARS-CoV-2 Testing Consumables. This falls under the industry category of laboratory reagents (CPV code: 33696500) and is classified as a goods procurement. The contract was awarded through a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition, justified by extreme urgency provisions due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The applicable legal basis involves Regulation 32(2) of the Public Contract Regulations 2015, with the contract value amounting to £900,000 and signed on 18th March 2021.
