## Summary

The University of Glasgow has completed a direct award process for the procurement of consumables and servicing for the PPE-384B-M(E) Personal Pipettor, designated as PPE Ref 6874. This procurement falls under the goods category and was conducted using an open procedure, with the contract valued at £57,281. The contract was signed on 15 February 2021, and the delivery is to be made to Glasgow, UK. The process is classified within the education sector and is governed by public law regulations, with the Glasgow Sheriff Court acting as the review body.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in laboratory supplies and equipment maintenance, specifically those capable of providing consumables for the PPE-384B-M(E) pipettor. Companies with experience in the education sector and those recognised as sole suppliers or partners with manufacturers, such as Apricot Design, could find this contract particularly relevant. Given that only one bid was submitted, this may indicate a limited competitive landscape, potentially favouring suppliers with established relationships in this niche market.
