Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process involves West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust as the buying organisation for the contract titled "WSFT - EBME - Auriga Laser," focusing on repair and maintenance services for medical and surgical equipment under the CPV classification 50420000. The procurement relates to a service agreement for Auriga XL EssentialCare's four-year HoLEP service, located in Bury St. Edmunds, United Kingdom, with the postal code IP33 2QZ. The process, which used a limited procurement method involving competitive quotations below the threshold, reached the award phase with a completion status as of 21 January 2026. The tender period concluded on 13 March 2025, and the contract runs from 13 September 2025 to 12 September 2029, valued at GBP 35,275.12.

This tender represents a substantial business growth opportunity, particularly for companies specialising in the repair and maintenance of medical equipment. While the procurement method was limited, it could serve as a valuable precedent for similar future contracts that could be more open to bids. Large-scale enterprises such as Boston Scientific Limited, the awarded supplier, are well-suited for such opportunities, although the tender restricts suitability for SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises. Businesses aiming to expand their portfolio in healthcare-related services should consider similar future tenders within the industry as valuable avenues for growth.
