Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust procured printed A&E CAS Cards to support patients attending accident and emergency departments. This is a goods requirement covering the production of patient-facing cards, rather than a clinical service or construction project. Delivery is associated with Lincoln County Hospital in Lincoln, Lincolnshire, and the wider requirement is for the Trust’s services in the United Kingdom. The procurement sits within the business services and printing category (CPV 79000000). It would suit commercial printers and specialist print suppliers able to produce clear, reliable materials for use in a hospital environment and to manage delivery to an NHS trust.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a selective call-off from the LPP DDS Framework. The contract was awarded to Harlow Printing Limited on 14 August 2026 for £69,755.65 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 14 August 2026 to 14 May 2027. The tender submission deadline was 13 August 2026 at 12:00. The requirement was classified as goods and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. One supplier received the award. The published outcome records the award as active, with the Trust as buyer and Harlow Printing Limited as the selected supplier for the A&E CAS Cards printing requirement.

For a supplier assessing future demand, this award shows that United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust buys printed materials specifically to support patients attending accident and emergency services. A credible competitor would need dependable commercial printing capability, capacity to produce consistent patient-facing cards, and operational discipline for fulfilment and delivery to a hospital trust. Familiarity with NHS purchasing expectations and the ability to participate through the relevant LPP DDS Framework would be important, because this requirement was placed as a framework call-off rather than through an unrestricted standalone competition. The opportunity is suitable for SMEs, so a specialist or regional printer with healthcare-facing production and distribution capability could be well placed when this type of requirement returns.
