## Summary

The procurement process involves Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust as the purchasing organisation, situated in Leeds, United Kingdom. This contract, titled "Specialist Print," falls under the industry category of printing and distribution services. The process has reached the awarding stage, with the award date logged as 2nd March 2026. This procurement method was direct, performed below the threshold and without competition, mainly due to the specialised nature of the products required, which are essential for processing blood samples within Pathology. The contract has been secured by Jones & Brooks Limited, based in Rochdale, with the contract period running from 18th August 2025 to 17th August 2026, amounting to a gross value of £113,400.

This tender presents an avenue for substantial business growth, particularly for companies specialising in printing services and distribution. Businesses with capabilities in handling specialist prints and providing seamless distribution services are ideal competitors in this niche. Given the contract's substantial value and ongoing nature, it offers considerable revenue opportunities for suppliers equipped with the required technical expertise and infrastructure. Companies within this sector keen on fostering future cooperation with Leeds Teaching Hospitals could benefit from aligning their services to meet approval for additional frameworks, enhancing their chances in subsequent procurements.

## Notice

Due to the highly specialist nature of the products, no viable alternatives or frameworks are available, and adapting requirements would compromise functionality. The item is only supplied by the incumbent, and without the waiver, Pathology would be unable to process blood samples, creating significant clinical risk and delays in patient care. Procurement risk is low, and to enable future competition, we will work with the supplier to try and onboard them onto an approved framework
