Summary of the contracting process

The Christie NHS Foundation Trust bought a 12-month standing order for Cranial 4Pi stereotactic masks, classified as medical consumables. The requirement is for the masks themselves; the procurement description does not set out quantities or further technical specifications. Delivery is associated with the Trust’s site on Wilmslow Road in Manchester. This is a medical supplies purchase for a specialist stereotactic treatment application, rather than a general healthcare service or works contract.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Brainlab Limited. The award was made on 30 August 2026, for £35,957.60. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. The Trust used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 31 August 2026 at 12:00. The procurement was for a single stated requirement, with no lots described. The Trust recorded that it was not suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. No evaluation criteria are reported, so the basis on which competing framework suppliers were assessed cannot be summarised.

This award shows demand at The Christie NHS Foundation Trust for specialist cranial stereotactic masks, bought through a framework call-off for a defined 12-month requirement. Suppliers seeking to compete for a similar requirement should be able to supply Cranial 4Pi stereotactic masks and meet the relevant clinical and technical specification for the Trust’s treatment use. Credibility is likely to depend on demonstrating product suitability, reliable supply and the ability to support a specialist healthcare customer through a framework route. The recorded SME unsuitability indicates that smaller suppliers should not assume this requirement is accessible to them directly; a suitable framework position and the capacity to fulfil the Trust’s requirement are important considerations.
