Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the supply of BK Activ S Ultrasound systems has been concluded, with Norfolk & Norwich University Hospital acting as the contracting authority based in Norwich, UK. Classified under the medical equipment category, this tender falls in the "goods" sector. The selective procurement method involved a call-off from a framework agreement. Important dates to note include the tender's completion on 1st January 2026, the award being made on 21st January 2026, and the contract period spanning from 22nd January to 31st March 2026. The awarded contract is valued at £225,000, with GE Medical Systems Limited securing the supplier role.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for businesses in the medical equipment industry, particularly those with expertise in ultrasound technology. Large corporations, similar to the award-winning supplier, GE Medical Systems Limited, would be well-positioned to compete in such tenders due to the scale of operations and capacity to deliver sophisticated medical systems. While SMEs and VCSEs were not deemed suitable for this particular procurement, it highlights the potential growth and expansion opportunities for other businesses capable of meeting the contracting authority’s needs within the specified framework agreements.
