## Summary

This procurement process involves a service contract for reagents, awarded by the Birmingham Women's and Children's NHS Foundation Trust to Agilent Technologies LDA UK Limited. The contracting authority is University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, which hosts the Birmingham and Solihull Procurement Collaborative. This process falls under the 'services' category, specifically under contract administration services, as classified by CPV 79994000. The procurement was conducted directly, without competition, as it was below the threshold requirements. The service contract is set to begin on 1st February 2026 and will conclude on 31st December 2026, with a total contract value of £16,557.60 (gross). This procurement is particularly relevant for businesses located in Birmingham, UKG31, United Kingdom.

The tender presents opportunities for businesses specialising in reagents and related services, particularly those capable of fulfilling service contracts for healthcare institutions. As the procurement method was direct and the process classified as a waiver, this suggests opportunities for businesses to provide unique or specialised products and services that may not be readily available through competitive means. Suppliers like Agilent Technologies, which is classified as an SME and VCSE, would be well-positioned to compete in similar future contracts, highlighting the potential for small and medium enterprises to engage with large public institutions in the healthcare sector.
