Summary of the contracting process

Aneurin Bevan University Health Board and Cardiff and Vale University Health Board bought maintenance, repair and calibration of endoscopes and associated electrosurgical equipment. The work covers flexible and rigid endoscopes, endoscopes used with ultrasound and other electro-medical equipment. This is specialist servicing of medical and surgical equipment (CPV 50420000), rather than a purchase of new devices. The named health boards are the intended users, while NHS Supply Chain arranged the purchase through its medical-equipment maintenance framework. Delivery information describes the wider service area as various locations in the UK; the equipment maintenance is for the two Welsh health boards named in the requirement.

The process has reached award: Fujifilm Healthcare UK Limited was selected for the endoscopy maintenance requirement, with the contract transacted through the NHS Supply Chain framework. The award is recorded as active and the contract was signed on 24 August 2026. Its value is £1,157,366. The stated contract period is six years, with no renewal option recorded for this specific requirement. The route was a direct award through the framework, rather than a new competition for this service. The underlying framework used a restricted procedure, with suppliers assessed on quality and cost: financial evaluation accounted for 30%, and the remaining criteria covered service records, technical support, spare parts and repairs, customer service, standards, general factors, contractual obligations and social value.

This award demonstrates demand from Welsh health boards for manufacturer-linked endoscopy servicing, including repair, maintenance and calibration of flexible and rigid scopes, ultrasound endoscopes and associated electrosurgical equipment. A credible competitor would need demonstrable technical capability across these device types, reliable access to spare parts and service kits, and the capacity to support clinical equipment across multiple sites. The assessment placed particular emphasis on service records, technical support, parts and repairs, alongside customer service, compliance with standards and delivery against contractual obligations. Social value also formed part of the quality assessment. The route used was a direct call-off from a national medical-equipment maintenance framework, so relevant framework access and an ability to contract through NHS Supply Chain would matter for competing for comparable requirements.
