Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust bought a pharmaceutical isolator for its SPU. This is a goods procurement for specialist pharmaceutical equipment, rather than a supply of medicines or a broader pharmacy service. Delivery is associated with the Trust’s City Hospital site in Nottingham, England. The requirement is a single piece of equipment, with the procurement title identifying its intended use in the SPU but giving no further technical description. The buying organisation is Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust, an NHS provider. The stated delivery location is Nottingham, with East Midlands also identified as the wider delivery area.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to ENVAIR TECHNOLOGY LIMITED. The award date was 7 September 2026, and the recorded contract period runs from 7 September 2026 to 7 September 2026. The awarded value is £134,839.20. The procurement was a direct award through the HTE Pharmacy Automated Solutions Framework, using a framework call-off route. The tender’s estimated value range was £112,366 to £134,839.20. The requirement was handled as a single procurement rather than being divided into lots. No evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility conditions are recorded. The stated suitability information indicates that the opportunity was not considered suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For suppliers considering similar requirements from Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust, this award indicates demand for specialist pharmaceutical isolator equipment for an SPU, at a scale requiring a substantial equipment purchase rather than a routine supply of medicines. A credible competitor would need to supply equipment suited to the Trust’s intended pharmaceutical use and be capable of delivering it to the Nottingham hospital site. The selected supplier, ENVAIR TECHNOLOGY LIMITED, is recorded as an SME, although the procurement was marked unsuitable for SMEs; that contrast means the outcome alone should not be treated as confirmation of SME eligibility. The buying route was a call-off from the HTE Pharmacy Automated Solutions Framework, so framework access and the ability to meet its call-off requirements are relevant capabilities for competing for this buyer’s comparable equipment needs.
