## Summary

The procurement process involves NSS - National Services Scotland, which is engaged in the health sector, and is located in Larkhall, UK. The title of the tender is "Illumina NextSeq 2000 Service and Maintenance". This process is in the Award stage, having reached its conclusion on 16th June 2022, following a limited procurement method that was enacted without prior publication of a call for competition. The contract was awarded to Illumina Cambridge Ltd, with a total value of £167,000, intended for the service and maintenance of key sequencing equipment essential for COVID-19 sample analysis within NHS Scotland's laboratories.

This tender presents significant opportunities for companies specialising in high-technology services and equipment maintenance, particularly in the health sector.
