Summary of the contracting process

The Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital has successfully completed a procurement process for the acquisition of three BK Activ 8 ultrasound systems, as documented in the award stage with the process tagged as "award". This contract, classified under the medical equipments category (CPV: 33100000), was procured through a selective method by calling off a framework agreement. The tender, with a total value of £225,000, had its award notice published on 28th January 2026, following an award date of 20th January 2026. The contract period is set from 21st January 2026 to 27th March 2026, with the delivery location specified as Norwich (postal code NR4 7UY) in the United Kingdom.
