## Summary

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, has completed the tender process for the Purchase of Microbiological Safety Cabinets for Public Health Wales. The procurement method was a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. The tender was conducted by the Health industry category in Cardiff, UK. The procurement stage has reached the award phase, with Monmouth Scientific being the sole supplier awarded a contract worth £162,716 signed on 21st December 2022.

This tender for Microbiological Safety Cabinets provides a growth opportunity for businesses in the Health industry. Suppliers capable of providing MSCs, decontaminating and disposing existing cabinets, installing ducting, and commissioning MSCs are well-suited to compete. The procurement offers a chance for large-scale suppliers like Monmouth Scientific to participate due to the specialised nature of the project, where expertise in the complete project approach is essential for successful delivery and service provision.

### Procurement Information

Previous tenders for cabinet installations in 2021 did not yield any alternative suppliers and Monmouth Scientific remains the only company, to our knowledge, who are capable of a whole project approach. Other companies are able to provide the cabinets only but are not able to complete the other necessary works needed to both safely remove existing cabinets and prepare the rooms for the new cabinets thereby necessitating sub-contracting the remaining elements to other companies which has the potential to cause significant disruption to the process and ultimately service provision. As such, there are no identified alternative suppliers who can complete all of the following elements as one project: -Provide MSCs -Decontaminate existing Class 1 cabinets -Dispose of existing Class 1 cabinets -Dispose of HEPA filters -Install ducting through to roof -Deliver, install and commission MSCs
