Summary of the contracting process
The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), a central government public authority based in London, United Kingdom, has completed the procurement process for a project titled "Purchase of Nanobodies and epitope mapping for grant funded project." This contract, worth €80,000 with a gross amount of €96,000, covers laboratory services, laboratory reagents, and medical analysis services crucial to the healthcare and biopharmaceutical industry.
The procurement method adopted was direct, without competition, due to the time-sensitive nature and specific expertise required for the project. The contract was awarded to Proteogenix SAS, a large supplier based in Schiltigheim, France. The document was officially signed on 10th November 2025, and the contract period is from 11th November 2025 to 10th November 2026.
The notice in full
The very important time constrains (before 20th of March 2026) attached to the awarded grant finance, for our specific objective, This supplier expertise with expressing our nanobody sequences in different formats, their speed, competitive pricing and MHRA's prior in house validation of nanobody products made by this supplier , makes this supplier in our view the only provider that can realistically meet our request within the allocated timelines.
Protein production can be outsourced from several commercial entities, but the trade for companies that have relevant and ample experience in nanobody expression, at small scale, in a cost-effective and time-saving manner to fulfil our request is limited.
Further, the timeline to complete the objectives of the project with the awarded grant finance translates into the inability to search, outsource, trial and validate the suitability of nanobodies produced by other suppliers unknown to MHRA, significantly narrowing feasible possibilities.
