UKAD wishes to appoint a supplier(s) of Doping Control Sample Collection equipment. UKAD conducts on average 10,000 Doping Control tests a year across urine and venous blood Samples, in accordance with the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) International Standards for Testing &amp; Investigations (ISTI). The Doping Control Sample Collection equipment to be provided is as follows:

- Urine Sample 'A' and 'B' bottles/containers
- Venous blood Sample 'A' and 'B' bottles/containers
- Venous blood Sample vacutainers and accessory packs
- Sample Collection Vessels
- Partial Sample equipment

All equipment must comply with the ISTI. Whilst a single supplier for all Doping Control Sample Collection equipment would be preferable, it is not a requirement for UKAD. Therefore Doping Control Sample Collection equipment will be separated into the following two groups:

- Urine and venous blood Sample collection equipment
- Sample Collection Vessels and Partial Sample equipment

Both will be evaluated independently, and a preferred supplier selected for each.

As a Non-Departmental Public Body (NDPB), UKAD is government funded, and therefore annual levels of testing are dependent on UKAD funding levels and are therefore subject to change. Expected annual equipment requirements are approximately as follows:

- 9,000 urine Sample 'A' and 'B' bottles/containers
- 2,000 venous blood Sample 'A' and 'B' bottles/containers
- 2,000 venous blood Sample vacutainers and accessory packs
- 13,500 Sample Collection Vessels
- 3,500 Partial Sample equipment
- 8 shipments to UKAD logistics storage centre

Suppliers will be expected to be able to meet certain standards/requirements in the production and supply of Doping Control Sample Collection equipment, and customer service to UKAD. These include (but not limited to):

- ISO 9001 certification and effective quality control management systems
- Proven experience of supplying Doping Control Sample Collection equipment to other Anti-Doping Organisations and/or Sample Collection Agencies operating within the framework of the World Anti-Doping Code
- Positive approach towards sustainability
- Effective customer service and account management

The above list is not exhaustive and UKAD reserves the right to utilise the appointed provider to cover other aspects of Doping Control Sample Collection equipment.

It is envisaged that the initial contract term will be for a duration of 3 years, however, UKAD wishes to reserve the right to extend the contract for a further 3 years, divided into renewal periods of 12 months each (i.e. 3+1+1+1).

Prospective bidders should refer to all attached tender documents, and submit their tender responses to
