Summary of the contracting process

QE Facilities is seeking a supplier with the requisite product range, experience, and competitive pricing to supply Bespoke Pathology Forms, Labels, & Specimen Bags under a multi-lot contract. This procurement, classified under the CPV code 85111800 for pathology services, entails a two-year contract with possible extensions of 1+1+1 years based on performance. The services are needed at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Gateshead, UKC2 region.

The procurement follows an open procedure, with the tender process initiated on 1st October 2024 and ending on 31st October 2024. Contracts will commence shortly afterwards, on 1st November 2024. This opportunity is managed by the buyer, QE Facilities, which is a body governed by public law in the health sector.

This tender offers an excellent opportunity for businesses in pathology services and related fields to expand their market presence and secure long-term contracts. The contract's division into three lots allows suppliers to compete in specific areas of expertise—labels, forms, and specimen bags—thus broadening the potential for participation. Companies with robust supply chains and the ability to meet frequent and ad hoc production demands will find this opportunity particularly well-suited.

SMEs like Hague Computer Supplies Limited and Jones & Brooks Ltd, which have previously been awarded contracts under similar tenders, exemplify the kind of businesses that could potentially thrive and grow by securing contracts with QE Facilities.
