Summary of the contracting process

Royal Papworth Hospital NHS Foundation Trust procured servicing and maintenance for its radiology equipment. This is a specialist equipment maintenance service, classified under CPV 50700000, covering repair and maintenance services for building installations. The work is delivered at the Trust’s site in Cambridge, United Kingdom. The requirement supports the continued operation and upkeep of hospital radiology equipment rather than the supply of new equipment or construction works. The buying organisation is Royal Papworth Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, based on Papworth Road, Cambridge. The selected supplier is Philips Electronics UK Limited, a large electronics business, indicating that the requirement was met by a company with established equipment and technical service capabilities in the healthcare technology market.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement, rather than an open standalone competition. The tender submission deadline was 1 March 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The contract was awarded to Philips Electronics UK Limited on 12 May 2026 for £88,832.31 including the stated GBP currency. The contract period runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2031. Royal Papworth Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is the buyer. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award is active, with one supplier recorded.

For suppliers that did not win, this award provides a clear example of demand from a specialist NHS hospital for ongoing radiology equipment servicing and maintenance. Businesses suited to similar requirements would need practical capability in maintaining radiology or closely related clinical equipment, diagnosing faults, carrying out planned servicing and supporting reliable operation in a hospital environment. Experience of working with NHS trusts or other healthcare providers would help demonstrate an understanding of clinical settings, service continuity and the consequences of equipment downtime. The procurement route also shows the importance of access to an applicable framework agreement and the ability to deliver a sustained technical support service. The requirement was marked suitable for SMEs and VCSEs, supporting participation by appropriately capable smaller organisations.
