Summary of the contracting process

Partners Procurement Service arranged rental of Arjo mattress blocks for North Middlesex University Hospital. This is a medical mattress hire requirement, classified as a goods purchase, for delivery in London, including the N18 1QX area. The procurement title identifies the mattresses as Arjo products; the requirement is rental rather than a purchase of mattresses. Partners Procurement Service is the buyer. The work centres on supplying the mattress blocks for use by the hospital, rather than broader hospital equipment or general facilities services.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Arjo UK Limited on 1 May 2026. The awarded value is £32,940. The contract period runs from 1 June to 30 November 2026. Partners Procurement Service used a selective process, as a call-off from a framework agreement. The estimated tender value was also £32,940. This was a single mattress-block rental requirement, not divided into lots. The published suitability information indicates that the opportunity was not aimed at SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. No evaluation criteria are recorded in the procurement information.

For suppliers seeking to compete when this buyer’s mattress-rental requirement next comes to market, the award demonstrates demand for rental of a specified manufacturer’s mattress blocks for a hospital in London. A credible competitor would need to provide the required Arjo mattress blocks and deliver them for clinical use at North Middlesex University Hospital. The awarded supplier is a large company, and the buyer marked the requirement as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that suppliers should be able to meet the buyer’s scale expectations. The route used was a call-off from a framework agreement, so suppliers would need access to an appropriate framework to compete through the same route.
