Summary of the contracting process

Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust procured trust-wide maintenance services for GE medical and surgical equipment. The requirement covers repair and preventive maintenance of GE equipment used by the Trust, with delivery in London. It is a services contract focused on keeping clinical equipment operational rather than supplying new equipment. The named buying organisation is Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust. The requirement is relevant to businesses specialising in servicing, repairing and maintaining GE healthcare equipment, particularly those able to support equipment across a healthcare trust rather than a single site. The service falls within the medical and surgical equipment maintenance category.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The Trust used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. Bids were due by 1 March 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The contract was awarded to GE HEALTHCARE LIMITED on 1 March 2026 for £89,049.15 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 1 April 2026 to 30 September 2026. The award is active. The opportunity was assessed as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The procurement was not divided into lots, and the published award identifies one supplier.

Although this contract has already been awarded, it provides a clear benchmark for suppliers targeting future medical equipment maintenance work with Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust. A credible competitor would need specialist capability in repairing and maintaining GE medical and surgical equipment, with the technical resources and operational capacity to provide trust-wide coverage in London. Access to the relevant framework route is important because this requirement was awarded through a framework call-off. The selected supplier was a large healthcare equipment business, indicating that the buyer accepted a supplier able to support a sizeable, clinically important equipment estate. Evidence of dependable maintenance delivery, responsive repairs and experience in NHS or comparable healthcare environments would strengthen a future proposition.
