Summary of the contracting process

The University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust has completed the procurement process for a 5-year maintenance contract for Cardiac Cath Lab assets located at Royal Sussex County & Worthing Hospitals. This procurement falls under the industry category of repair and maintenance services of medical and surgical equipment, classified under CPV code 50420000. The procurement method utilised was a selective call-off from a framework agreement, specifically NHS SC Maintenance framework 2021/S000-021535 Lots 11 and 12, which permits direct awards. The contract, valued at approximately £1,857,706, was awarded on 29 August 2025 to NHS Supply Chain Coordination Limited. The contract period spans from 1 February 2025 to 31 January 2030, with operations based in South East, United Kingdom.

This tender presents a significant business opportunity primarily for suppliers within the framework agreement who specialise in maintenance services for medical equipment. Although the opportunity was restricted to a direct award, businesses within the NHS Supply Chain framework can see long-term growth prospects, especially those providing specialised support for cardiac medical devices. The large-scale operation of the NHS Supply Chain Coordination Limited as the supplier indicates potential opportunities for similar-sized entities keen to leverage existing frameworks for sustainable business expansion.
