## Summary

The Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust has completed a procurement process for the supply of home testing kits for a sexual health clinic. The buying organisation, located at Northumbria House in North Shields, acted without competition given the direct procurement method employed. The tender falls under the 'goods' category, specifically manual swab test kits, and was awarded to Orion Security Print, a large-scale supplier based in Derby. With the legal backing of UK legislation 2023/54, the contract was signed on 24th June 2025 and was active from 25th June to 2nd July 2025, involving a total gross value of GBP 56,280.

This contract presented opportunities for businesses specialising in medical goods, particularly those manufacturing or distributing testing kits, to collaborate with large public sector bodies like NHS Trusts. Although Orion Security Print was awarded this contract through a direct procurement method, similar opportunities may arise for businesses capable of supplying medical testing equipment in response to future needs. These opportunities are well-suited to companies able to meet exacting healthcare standards and able to manage logistical requirements efficiently. The completed procurement indicates a potential area of growth and partnership between the medical supply industry and the healthcare sector.
