## Summary

Atlas BFW Management Limited commissioned a fully comprehensive maintenance service for a Genexus DX sequencer and purification system. The work is medical equipment repair and maintenance, supporting the continued operation of this laboratory equipment. The buyer is based in Blackpool; the contract record does not identify a separate service delivery location.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Life Technologies. It was a below-threshold direct award without competition, covering one lot. The contract was signed on 11 May 2026 and runs from 12 May 2026 to 11 May 2027. Its value is £48,650 excluding VAT (£58,380 including VAT). The award date is not recorded separately from the contract signing date.

For this buyer’s requirement, a credible competitor would need to provide fully comprehensive maintenance for the Genexus DX sequencer and its purification system, including the repair and maintenance capability needed to support specialist medical laboratory equipment. The award went to Life Technologies, a large supplier. The purchase demonstrates demand for a complete, equipment-specific maintenance service rather than a general equipment supply. Suppliers with relevant technical expertise and the capacity to maintain both the sequencer and purification system would be best placed to compete if this same requirement returns to market.
