Summary of the contracting process

North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust procured specialist decontamination services for surgical instrumentation. The requirement covers sterilisation of robotic instruments, including low-temperature sterilisation for robotic elements, together with associated instrument trays. This is a healthcare service supporting the safe preparation and reuse of surgical equipment, rather than a general cleaning or facilities-management contract. The work is delivered for the Trust in Peterborough, England. The requirement is categorised as hospital services and is intended for suppliers able to handle specialised medical-device decontamination, particularly robotic surgical equipment and its component parts. The named buyer is North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust, whose address is in Peterborough.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a selective procedure as a call-off from the NHS SBS Decontamination Services and Solutions framework, specifically lots 1 and 2. The contract was awarded to Synergy Health (UK) Limited on 23 April 2026 for £160,000. The contract period runs from 24 April 2026 to 23 April 2028. The tender submission deadline was 23 April 2026 at 12 noon. The procurement was evaluated within the framework call-off route; the published outcome identifies the selected supplier and the requirement for sterilisation of robotic instruments, low-temperature sterilisation for robotic elements and trays. The opportunity was not marked as suitable for small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This award demonstrates established NHS demand for outsourced decontamination of robotic surgical instruments and trays, including low-temperature processes for components that cannot undergo conventional sterilisation. A credible competitor for a future requirement from North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust would need specialist healthcare decontamination capability, validated processes for surgical instrumentation and practical experience handling robotic systems and their removable elements. It would also need to operate within the relevant NHS SBS framework route or another procurement route accepted by the Trust, and to provide reliable collection, processing, quality control and return of equipment for clinical use. The scale and complexity favour an established provider with sufficient operational capacity, specialist facilities and NHS-facing service experience.
