Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured three Mindray TE9 portable diagnostic ultrasound systems for use in its Emergency Department. This is a medical equipment supply requirement, rather than a works or clinical service contract. Delivery is in England, supporting emergency care activity within the Trust. The equipment is intended to provide portable ultrasound diagnostic capability, so relevant businesses include manufacturers, authorised medical equipment distributors and suppliers able to provide Mindray TE9 systems. NHS Supply Chain Coordination Limited was involved as the selected supplier. The requirement is specific to three named portable ultrasound systems, making product availability, manufacturer authorisation and the ability to supply and support this equipment central to commercial relevance. The buyer is based in Gloucester.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The award was made on 31 July 2026 to NHS Supply Chain Coordination Limited for £60,132.72. The contract period runs from 6 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. The tender submission deadline was 3 August 2026 at 12 noon. The procurement was classified as goods and medical equipment, with the requirement covering three systems. The tender recorded an estimated minimum value of £60,132.72; a separate tender value of £0.01 is also recorded. The award is active, and the contract period aligns with the awarded requirement. The opportunity was identified as suitable for both SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprise organisations.

For a supplier reviewing future NHS demand, this award demonstrates a defined requirement for portable diagnostic ultrasound systems in an emergency department, purchased through a framework call-off and fulfilled by a large NHS supply-chain organisation. A credible competitor would need reliable access to the specified Mindray TE9 model, or a clearly compliant supply route, together with the capacity to deliver three units to an NHS trust in England. Commercial readiness would also include understanding framework call-off processes, NHS purchasing requirements, equipment documentation, delivery coordination and any manufacturer or distributor obligations associated with medical equipment. SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises were considered suitable, so smaller specialist medical-device suppliers may be relevant where they can demonstrate dependable supply and fulfilment at this scale.
