Summary of the contracting process

Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured 11 non-invasive CPAP ventilators for use in England. These are medical devices that provide continuous positive airway pressure without invasive ventilation, intended for patient respiratory support. The procurement is categorised as medical equipment and falls within the goods category. The buyer is based in Gloucester. NHS Supply Chain Coordination Limited was selected to supply the equipment, indicating that the requirement was fulfilled through the NHS supply chain rather than directly from an individual medical-device manufacturer. Businesses relevant to this requirement include manufacturers, authorised distributors and healthcare equipment suppliers able to provide non-invasive CPAP ventilators and support delivery to NHS organisations in England.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 16 June 2026 at 12:00. The contract was awarded to NHS Supply Chain Coordination Limited on 23 June 2026 for £109,999.26, covering 11 ventilators. The awarded contract period runs from 23 June 2026 to 22 June 2027. The tender record gives a minimum estimated value of £109,999.26 and an overall stated tender value of £0.01, while the award value is £109,999.26. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. Evaluation details are not stated.

For suppliers that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates established NHS demand for non-invasive CPAP ventilators at a substantial equipment-supply scale. A credible competitor for a future requirement from Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust would need dependable access to suitable CPAP ventilators, the ability to supply multiple units as a coordinated order, and reliable distribution into England. The route used here is important: the buyer purchased through a framework call-off, so relevant businesses would need access to an appropriate NHS framework or a route that can support equivalent call-off purchasing. Manufacturers, authorised healthcare distributors and specialist respiratory-equipment suppliers are the most directly relevant competitors. The requirement also indicates that smaller and voluntary-sector organisations may be capable of participating where they can meet the framework and delivery requirements.
