Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured fully comprehensive maintenance for its Magnetom Sola MRI scanner. The requirement is medical imaging equipment servicing and maintenance, intended to keep the scanner maintained throughout the contract. Delivery is associated with Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, including the GL53 7AN postcode. The Trust is the buyer, and the requirement concerns a specific MRI system rather than general hospital maintenance.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. The award was made to NHS Supply Chain Coordination Limited on 9 September 2026, for £416,912.17. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2031. The Trust used a selective procurement as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 30 June 2026 at noon. The published estimated minimum value was £416,912.17, while the tender’s stated value was £0.01; the award value is £416,912.17. The opportunity was identified as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. No lots or evaluation criteria are recorded in the procurement details.

This award demonstrates demand from Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for long-term, fully comprehensive maintenance of a Magnetom Sola MRI scanner. A credible competitor for this specific requirement would need to demonstrate the technical capability and service capacity to maintain this MRI model comprehensively over a multi-year contract, supporting reliable operation at a hospital site in Cheltenham. The Trust used a framework call-off, so suppliers seeking to compete for a similar requirement would need access to an appropriate framework route. The procurement was marked unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating a scale and delivery profile aimed at larger or suitably resourced suppliers. The selected supplier was NHS Supply Chain Coordination Limited.
