Summary of the contracting process

NHS Supply Chain has completed the procurement process for the "CF CAN Heart Valves and VADS" project, which falls under the Medical Equipment industry category. This framework agreement aims to supply structural heart devices and consumables throughout regions including the North East, North West, and London. The procurement method was an open procedure above the threshold, with a total estimated value of £120,000,000. The tender process culminated in an award on 25th November 2024, and the contract period will run from 23rd June 2025 to 22nd June 2029. The procurement initiative is part of the NHS England HCTED programme, ensuring that NHS trusts purchase high-cost, low-volume devices through the mandated NHS Supply Chain route.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for business growth, especially for suppliers of medical devices and consumables. SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises) and VCSEs (voluntary, community, and social enterprises) were specifically sought, allowing these organisations to expand their market presence. The framework agreement's broad delivery locations across the UK enhance market reach for businesses engaged in the medical equipment sector. Companies specialising in medical technology, particularly those focusing on cardiac devices, will find this contract well-suited to their capabilities. The significant financial scale and extended duration of the contract ensure reliable business throughput and revenue stability.
