## Summary

Integrated Laboratory Solutions LLP has awarded a call-off contract for Molecular Tests to the University of Birmingham under the Provider Selection Regime, utilising Direct Award Process C. This contract pertains to pathology services and falls under the services category. The contract, valued at £24,000, is relevant to healthcare service provision and covers operations from 4th March 2026 to 3rd March 2027, with options for two further extensions of up to 12 months each. Located at Airedale General Hospital in Keighley, West Yorkshire, efforts were made to ensure the continued delivery of an existing service with minimal changes. A standstill period begins after the publication, and representations must be made by 1st March 2026.

This tender offers businesses within the pathology and molecular testing sectors an opportunity to align with a reputable provider, fostering continuity and expansion. The decision reflects satisfaction with existing service standards, making it an attractive prospect for businesses capable of delivering high-quality healthcare services under established parameters. Since a competitive process was deemed unnecessary, businesses familiar with direct award procurement methods may find potential growth opportunities, especially those that can contribute to seamless, quality healthcare delivery without altering existing service scopes. The absence of subcontracting requirements may particularly appeal to organisations with robust internal capabilities.

## Notice

Integrated Laboratory Services LLP (ILS LLP) has awarded a contract for Molecular Tests to University of Birmingham under the Provider Selection Regime using Direct Award Process C. The service will run from 04/03/2026 to 03/03/2027 with the option to extend for a further additional 2 periods of up to 12 months each, with a total contract value of PS24000.

This award relates to the continued delivery of an existing service, which is not changing substantially in scope or specification.

Direct Award Process C has been used because the current provider is delivering the service to a satisfactory standard, is capable of continuing to do so, and remains the provider best placed to ensure continuity of care. Running a competitive process would not add value and is not required under the PSR.

In making this decision, the contracting authority has considered the PSR objectives and is satisfied that the award supports quality, value for money, integration, and continuity of services. A full decision record has been completed in line with PSR transparency requirements. Individual(s) making the award decision were;
