Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, managed by the Royal Free Hospital NHS Trust, involves a call-off contract extension for pressure area care mattresses under the HTE framework HTE-BEDS22-04-L5-RF. This contract falls under the industry category of repair and maintenance services of medical and surgical equipment, with a contract value of £144,000. The process was initiated using a selective procurement method through a framework agreement. The procurement stage is now in the Award phase, with the contract period running from 5th May 2026 to 15th November 2026. Key delivery locations include the United Kingdom and other regions worldwide, offering potential for widespread engagement by suppliers. The contracting authority is based in London, with contact available through Jane West at Royal Free Hospital NHS Trust.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for companies capable of providing repair and maintenance services for medical equipment, particularly large enterprises, as the contract stipulations do not indicate suitability for SMEs or VCSEs. Suppliers with a presence in global markets, particularly those with existing frameworks like the DIRECT HEALTHCARE GROUP LIMITED, would be well-positioned to leverage this contract to strengthen their market position, increase their service portfolio, and establish long-term relationships with the UK's healthcare sector.
