# Framework contract for laboratory reagents and consumables

Kenyatta National Hospital invites bids for a framework contract to supply and deliver laboratory reagents and consumables for 2026–2028. The notice describes an open tender for goods, with written paper bids submitted at the Supply Chain Management Department entrance. Bid validity is 119 days. The portal displays a closing time of 10:00 on 22 October 2026 without a stated time zone, while the listing carries a different 07:00 UTC timestamp; the notice does not explain the difference, so the deadline is presented as a date only. No estimated value, framework ceiling, quantities or detailed framework term are stated.
