Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust procured maintenance, repair and calibration services for its NAEOTOM Alpha medical imaging equipment. The requirement is a nine-year point-of-sale maintenance arrangement for the NAEOTOM Alpha, a specialist medical and surgical imaging system. Services are delivered for the Trust in Nottingham, at the City Hospital Campus in Nottinghamshire. The procurement is categorised as medical and surgical equipment maintenance services. The requirement is specific to the NAEOTOM Alpha rather than general hospital equipment maintenance, so it is most relevant to suppliers with direct technical capability for this equipment or closely integrated manufacturer-supported service operations. The buying organisation is Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust.

The procurement has been awarded and is complete. It used a selective procedure as a direct call-off from the NHS Supply Chain framework for maintenance, repair and calibration of medical equipment. Bids had to be submitted by 22 June 2025 at 12:00. The contract was awarded on 23 June 2025 to Siemens Healthcare Limited, trading as Siemens Healthineers. The awarded value is £1,863,324.59. The contract runs from 23 June 2025 to 22 June 2034, covering the stated nine-year maintenance period. The procurement’s estimated value range was £175,530.05 to £1,863,324.59. It was not identified as suitable for small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This award demonstrates sustained demand from Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust for specialist, manufacturer-level support for NAEOTOM Alpha equipment. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need proven capability to maintain, repair and calibrate this specific medical imaging system, with access to the relevant technical knowledge, diagnostic tools, replacement parts and service processes. Experience supporting high-value clinical imaging equipment would be important, as would the operational capacity to provide reliable coverage over a long-term service arrangement. Suppliers should also understand NHS Supply Chain framework call-offs and the requirements of servicing equipment in a hospital environment. The selected supplier is a large specialist healthcare technology business, indicating the scale and technical depth involved.
