## Summary

The procurement process, managed by NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership on behalf of Aneurin Bevan University Health Board, focuses on the provision of PCR Assay Testing within the pathology services industry category. This contract is located in the regions of UKL21 and UKL16, and the procurement stage is at the award phase as of 3rd August 2026. The procurement was conducted using a limited method without prior publication, continuing an existing contract under the Laboratory Diagnostics, Point of Care Testing and Pathology Managed Services framework. The total contract value amounts to GBP 719,200.66, with the date signed on the same day the standstill period began, and the award date set for 13th August 2026.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses within the healthcare diagnostics sector, particularly those specialising in pathology services, to align themselves with established frameworks and continue delivering integral health services across Wales. Given the procurement’s path as a direct award, it is particularly appealing for enterprises already engaged in similar service provision or those operating as small to medium enterprises (SMEs), as evidenced by the sole successful bid from SEROSEP UK LIMITED.
