## Summary

The UK Health Security Agency, acting for the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, procured a hollowfibre model for use at CL3, comprising two Fibercell systems. This is a goods requirement rather than a service or works contract. The equipment falls within laboratory pumps and accessories and is to be delivered in the United Kingdom. The named supplier is Bio-Connect B.V., a Netherlands-based business. The requirement is relevant to manufacturers, distributors and specialist laboratory equipment suppliers able to provide Fibercell hollowfibre systems and associated laboratory pump equipment for CL3 applications. Businesses focused on unrelated laboratory consumables, general facilities services or construction will find the scope less relevant.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. Bio-Connect B.V. was selected for the single completed lot. The contract was signed on 13 August 2026 and runs from 13 August 2026 to 31 December 2026. Its value is £42,000 excluding VAT, or £50,400 including VAT. The contract is active. The available procurement information identifies the goods and delivery requirement, but does not set out a comparative evaluation basis or competing tender process. This was therefore a non-competitive purchase rather than an open invitation for suppliers to submit bids. The contract covers the two Fibercell systems described in the requirement.

This award provides evidence of demand from the UK Health Security Agency for specialist hollowfibre laboratory equipment used at CL3. A future competitor would need credible access to the specified Fibercell systems or an authorised supply route, together with the technical knowledge to identify and provide the correct hollowfibre model and associated laboratory pump equipment. The successful supplier was an SME based in the Netherlands, showing that the requirement was met by a specialist overseas business rather than necessarily a large UK contractor. Suppliers should be able to support delivery within the United Kingdom and understand the operational requirements of laboratory equipment used in CL3 settings. The opportunity is most relevant to specialist manufacturers, distributors and laboratory technology suppliers.
