Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

UHSussex NHS Foundation Trust bought a Fujifilm Sonosite PX diagnostic ultrasound machine for Petworth Ward at St Richard’s Hospital in Chichester. This was a one-off capital purchase of equipment, rather than a wider service or works contract. The procurement is for diagnostic ultrasound equipment (CPV 33124120), intended for use in the hospital ward. The requirement was handled by the Trust, with supply made through NHS Supply Chain Coordination Limited under its framework for ultrasound scanners, associated options and related services. The delivery location is St Richard’s Hospital, Chichester.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to NHS Supply Chain Coordination Limited. The award was made on 20 October 2026 for £37,824. The contract period runs from 20 October to 19 November 2026. The estimated procurement value ranged from £31,520 to £37,824. This was a selective procurement conducted as a call-off from an existing framework, rather than a separate open competition. The tender submission deadline was 19 October 2026 at 12:00. The purchase was for a single ultrasound machine, with no lots identified. The procurement was marked unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This award demonstrates demand from UHSussex NHS Foundation Trust for specialist diagnostic ultrasound equipment for hospital use, procured through the NHS Supply Chain framework for ultrasound scanners and related options and services. Suppliers seeking to compete for a comparable requirement would need to provide a Fujifilm Sonosite PX machine, or equipment meeting the buyer’s future specification, and be able to supply through the relevant framework route. Credibility will depend on access to the specified medical imaging equipment and the ability to fulfil a one-off capital purchase for a hospital ward. This was a focused equipment supply, not a large multi-lot programme or a requirement for a separate clinical service.
