Summary of the contracting process

Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured specialist service maintenance for a GE Signa Premier XT MR31 3T MRI scanner at Hull Royal Infirmary in Hull. The requirement is for repair and maintenance services for medical and surgical equipment, focused on keeping this high-specification magnetic resonance imaging system operational. The buying organisation is the NHS Foundation Trust serving Hull, while the equipment is located at its Hull Royal Infirmary site on Anlaby Road. The procurement concerns a service rather than the supply or replacement of an MRI scanner, and is associated with the Trust’s capital replacement allocation. The appointed route uses NHS procurement arrangements for this particular medical imaging maintenance requirement.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 13 August 2026 to NHS Supply Chain Coordination Limited. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 12 August 2026 at noon. The awarded value is £714,989.97, with an estimated procurement range from £714,989.97 to £714,989.98, all in GBP. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2036. The award was active when recorded. The published information identifies the requirement as a single service package, evaluated through the framework call-off route rather than an open competition for direct bids from all suppliers.

For a supplier that did not win this award, the procurement demonstrates sustained NHS demand for specialist maintenance of a GE Signa Premier XT MR31 3T MRI scanner at Hull University Teaching Hospitals. A credible future competitor would need proven capability in maintaining this model or comparable 3T MRI systems, including the specialist engineering, diagnostic and technical support capacity needed to protect clinical uptime. Experience of working in an NHS hospital environment and managing planned maintenance, fault response and equipment lifecycle requirements would strengthen its position. Suppliers would also need to understand NHS framework call-offs and meet the participation requirements of the relevant framework route; the opportunity was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises.
