Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Royal Free London NHS Trust bought six BD Alaris Nexus units, medical equipment for use in London. The procurement is described as a call-off for BD Alaris Nexus equipment; no further intended use or technical specification is set out. The buying organisation is Royal Free London NHS Trust, and the delivery location is London. Although the process is categorised as services, the stated requirement is for six units of medical equipment, so suppliers of this equipment are the relevant market. The purchase concerns a named product rather than a broad equipment range, and businesses should assess their ability to supply BD Alaris Nexus units against the requirement.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. BECTON DICKINSON UK LTD was selected as supplier. The award was made on 6 October 2026, for £22,284. The contract period runs from 2 to 6 October 2026. The initial estimated procurement value was £18,570; the awarded value is higher. The requirement was procured through a selective call-off from a framework agreement, rather than as an open competition. The stated tender deadline was 4 September 2026 at 12:00. The procurement identifies six units, with no division into lots recorded. The Trust marked the opportunity as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. No award evaluation criteria are recorded.

This award provides evidence that Royal Free London NHS Trust purchases BD Alaris Nexus medical equipment through framework call-offs. Suppliers competing when this specific requirement next reaches the market would need to supply the named equipment and be positioned to participate in the relevant framework route; a general medical-equipment offer alone may not meet the product-specific need. The selected supplier is a large business, and the Trust marked the requirement as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that smaller suppliers may need to consider whether they can meet the requirement through a suitable framework supplier or other permitted supply arrangement. The scale shown is a six-unit purchase, so credible competitors should be able to supply that quantity and meet the Trust’s delivery needs in London.
