Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust bought Samsung Galaxy A17 handheld mobile telephones for delivery in Yorkshire and the Humber, England. The requirement was for the purchase and supply of Samsung A17 devices rather than installation, support or other telecommunications services. The procurement falls within the goods category and concerns mobile telephone equipment. The buyer is an NHS trust based in Cottingham, East Yorkshire. The stated purpose was to provide the trust with Samsung Galaxy A17 handheld devices. This is a defined end-user device supply requirement, relevant to mobile phone distributors, business technology suppliers and resellers able to provide Samsung hardware to a public-sector healthcare organisation.

The procurement has been awarded and is complete. Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust selected Softcat Ltd on 30 January 2026, with an awarded value of £242,892. The contract period ran from 2 February 2026 to 2 February 2026. The requirement was procured as a selective call-off from the NOE CPC Link4 Tech Devices framework, rather than through an open standalone tender. The tender submission deadline was 26 January 2026 at 17:00. The award covers the Samsung Galaxy A17 device supply requirement as a single procurement. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, while participation was not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises.

For suppliers that did not win this award, the procurement demonstrates a public-sector requirement for a substantial volume of standardised Samsung handheld devices within an NHS environment. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need reliable access to Samsung Galaxy A17 stock, strong distribution or reseller capability, and the capacity to fulfil a sizeable device order consistently. Experience supplying technology hardware to public bodies, including healthcare organisations, would help demonstrate understanding of purchasing controls, delivery coordination and service expectations. The route used also shows the commercial importance of holding a place on, or partnering with a supplier able to access, the NOE CPC Link4 Tech Devices framework. SMEs were considered suitable for this type of supply.
