Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Unite Procurement UK Limited, acting for the Ministry of Defence, is currently in the tender stage of procuring a range of health products and medical equipment, with the involvement primarily focused on the United Kingdom. This procurement process invites suppliers to join the Unite Procurement Platform, offering opportunities for supplying items such as diagnostic equipment, patient monitoring systems, and emergency medical tools, all of which are crucial for military medical facilities and field hospitals. The tender, valued at £2,000,000, has a tender period ending on 4th June 2026 and a contract period spanning from 5th June 2026 to 5th June 2028. This selective procurement, mainly categorised under the CPV code 33000000 (Medical equipment and pharmaceuticals), aims to comply with both UK and international standards and seeks to include multiple suppliers rather than a sole provider.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the medical equipment and health products sectors. Companies specialising in manufacturing or supplying diagnostic equipment, personal protective equipment (PPE), pharmaceuticals, or similar products will find this an ideal opportunity to secure a long-term contract and establish themselves within the public sector supply chains. Given the focus on SMEs and VCSEs, smaller businesses with regulatory certifications, comprehensive product documentation, and robust support capabilities are particularly encouraged to express interest. This diverse and competitive platform will not only foster growth for participating businesses but also ensure that the Ministry of Defence has a flexible and reliable supply network.
