Summary of the contracting process

The Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust completed a procurement process to acquire an ophthalmic laser as part of their capital scheme, with the aim of replacing outdated equipment. The contracting process, executed through a selective procurement method as part of a call-off from a framework agreement, falls under the surgical laser category (CPV code: 33169100). Based in Bradford, United Kingdom, the procurement reached the award stage, with the contract issued to Litechnica Limited. Key dates include the award of the contract on 19th February 2026, followed by the contract period spanning from 25th February to 24th March 2026. The process culminated with the publication of the award notice on 21st April 2026, confirming the transaction valued at £36,120.

This procurement offers substantial growth opportunities, particularly for businesses involved in the supply of medical and surgical equipment. Given the specialised nature of the tender, companies with expertise and capabilities in providing advanced ophthalmic technology and those already participating within established framework agreements could compete effectively. Although this specific contract does not prioritise SMEs or VCSEs, firms such as Litechnica Limited, with experience in supplying similar equipment, demonstrate success in engaging with NHS procurement processes and securing lucrative public sector contracts.
