## Summary

The procurement process led by Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust focuses on the acquisition of services related to the maintenance of a mass spectrometer used in pathology, located in Leeds, United Kingdom. The contract, awarded under a direct procurement method due to the absence of an approved framework, involves a direct award to AB Sciex UK Limited, noted for its expertise in repairing and maintaining medical and surgical equipment. The procurement is in the award stage, with the contract period spanning from 1 January 2026 to 31 December 2026. The contract, valued at £197,751.68 excluding VAT, was signed on 29 December 2025, with a publication date of the award notice on 12 February 2026 and is classified within the services industry category.

This procurement opportunity presents significant potential for business growth, particularly for firms specialising in medical equipment maintenance and repair. AB Sciex UK Limited, a key supplier in the field, has already secured the contract, yet similar businesses equipped with technical expertise in maintaining complex laboratory instruments may find future opportunities in similar public sector contracts. SMEs and large organisations alike, particularly those focused on niche medical technology solutions, would be well-suited to entering similar tenders to expand their business footprint in the public healthcare sector.
