Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust is buying lymphoedema products, including compression bandages and hosiery, for patient care. Synchronicity Care Ltd manages the procurement on the Trust’s behalf. The products are medical consumables supplied to the Trust’s services in the North East of England. The requirement covers supply rather than clinical treatment or installation. The procurement used a framework for advanced wound care and lymphoedema compression products, so the work sits within a defined healthcare-products category and a wider NHS purchasing arrangement.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Medi UK Ltd on 1 September 2026. The awarded value is £376,180.20. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2028, with two optional 12-month extensions. The Trust used a selective, framework call-off route, through the NHS SBS framework for advanced wound care and lymphoedema compression bandages and hosiery. The original submission deadline was 31 July 2026. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses. No award scoring or evaluation criteria are recorded in the available procurement details.

This award demonstrates recurring demand from County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust for lymphoedema products, particularly compression bandages and hosiery, supplied through an NHS framework route. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need a dependable range of specialist lymphoedema compression products and the capacity to fulfil healthcare supply needs for a multi-year contract. The selected supplier was Medi UK Ltd, recorded as a small or medium-sized business, showing that a smaller supplier can serve this requirement. Businesses already positioned on an appropriate framework for advanced wound care and compression products would be best placed to compete through the same purchasing route. The award relates specifically to product supply, not treatment services.
