Summary of the contracting process

The West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust completed a tender process for the capital purchase of an operating table, specifically the Meera Operating Table, designated under CPV code 33192230. The selective procurement method was initiated through a call-off from a framework agreement, focusing on goods procurement. Situated in Bury St. Edmunds, United Kingdom, the contract began on 4th March 2026, with a duration extending until 3rd March 2027. The tender period concluded on 26th February 2026, and the award status was published on 21st April 2026, encompassing a contract value of £49,599.76.

The procurement represents an opportunity for large-scale enterprises, like Getinge Limited—already serving as the supplier—to engage with the healthcare sector and foster business relationships within the NHS framework. As the tender excludes suitability for SMEs and VCSEs, primarily larger organisations within the medical equipment industry are strategically positioned to benefit from such contracts. This award highlights potential leverage in the development and provision of specialised healthcare equipment, facilitating growth through steady collaboration with public health authorities.
