On the question of @UKAS accreditation.

It looks to me as if the 4th August 2021 contract is likely the current one

3.1.6/ Supplier warrants that it maintains UKAS accreditation of facilities…
4.1.2; providesservices in accordance with UKAS accreditation requirements

It also warrants that any subcontractor will be UKAS accredited for the supply of the relevant services (4.4.5)

And the facilities will be operated in accordance with @UKAS standards & they have all the necessary consents laid down by @UKAS (10.1.1)

And it has and shall maintain all nec rights, consents, authorisation, accreditations and licences to supply the Servjces at the Facilities (10.1.9)

The contract is here. Although the original end date is 27 Sept it has a provision that enables a total of 3, 4 week extensions

As I cannot see another Immensa Contract subsequent to this for the provision of these services (albeit there is one for the provision of genomic sequencing services) either they are working under this contract or the new one has yet to be published.

A little curiosity about when Immensa actually got its first contract

The first one on the Gov website is the one to commence on 4th Sept to end 4th March

In section 2.2 it actually refers to services supplied under a Prior Contract
Where is it?
What contract amount?
Dates?

When I checked the Definitions Section for “Prior Agreement”….there is no date.

Immensa was only incorporated at the end of May 2020 with £100 share capital.

So when DID it get its first contract? For what amount?

How? How did they get it?
