Summary of the contracting process

Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust purchased one light source for endoscopy, classified as an endoscope-related medical device. The requirement is a single item rather than a wider equipment or service package, and the stated delivery postcode is LS9 7TF in Leeds. The purchase was made through the NHS Supply Chain framework for rigid and semi-rigid endoscopes and associated items. The supplier is based in Dundee, while delivery is to the Trust’s Leeds site. This is a focused hospital equipment requirement for suppliers of endoscopy equipment, rather than a general lighting contract.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Karl Storz Endoscopy (UK) Limited on 16 October 2026. The awarded value is £11,956.61. The contract runs from 27 November 2026 to 26 November 2031. The procurement was a selective call-off from an existing framework, rather than a standalone open competition. It covered one light source, with no lots identified. The tender estimate was £9,963.84. The award record does not set out separate technical or price weightings, so the published outcome establishes the successful supplier and value but not a detailed scoring basis. The process was described as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates a recurring hospital requirement for endoscopy light sources at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, procured through the NHS Supply Chain framework for rigid and semi-rigid endoscopes and associated items. A credible competitor would need to supply compatible endoscopy equipment and be positioned to participate in that framework route, rather than relying on a general medical-equipment offer alone. The buyer selected an established, large endoscopy supplier for a single-device requirement, so relevant product capability and the ability to meet the Trust’s equipment needs are central. Businesses focused on small-volume specialist endoscopy equipment may find this type of call-off more relevant than broad service or construction contracts.
