Summary of the contracting process

NHS Gloucestershire Shared Services procured a cardiopulmonary exercise testing system (CPET) for medical equipment use. The requirement is identified as the Ultima CardiO2/PFX and Ergoselect 200, indicating a system combining cardiopulmonary exercise testing with an Ergoselect 200 exercise device. The buyer is based at Victoria Warehouse in Gloucester, and the delivery postcode is GL1 3HT. The procurement is categorised as goods and concerns the supply of equipment rather than a construction or professional service contract. It was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The named supplier, Medical Graphics UK Ltd, is based at Tewkesbury Business Park in Gloucestershire and is classified as an SME.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. NHS Gloucestershire Shared Services used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 3 August 2026 at 12:00. The contract was awarded to Medical Graphics UK Ltd on 3 August 2026 for £50,249.21 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 6 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. The procurement’s stated minimum value was also £50,249.21. One supplier is recorded as receiving the award, and the award is active. The published outcome therefore identifies both the selected supplier and the agreed contract period for the CPET equipment supply.

This award shows a defined NHS requirement for specialist cardiopulmonary exercise testing equipment, including the Ultima CardiO2/PFX and Ergoselect 200 configuration. Businesses best placed for a future requirement of this kind would be medical equipment manufacturers, authorised distributors or specialist clinical-technology suppliers able to provide, install or support CPET systems and associated exercise-testing equipment. Credibility would come from direct product knowledge, reliable supply arrangements, the ability to meet NHS operational and technical requirements, and experience delivering regulated medical equipment to healthcare organisations. The SME suitability indicates that a smaller specialist supplier can be competitive where it has the relevant product capability, framework access and capacity to deliver the equipment and support expected by this NHS buyer.
