Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership, on behalf of Cardiff and Vale University Health Board, has recently completed the procurement process for the "Inspection, Testing and Servicing of Decontamination Equipment." This tender falls under the services category, specifically focusing on calibration services. The procurement method was a limited procedure, with no prior publication of a call for competition. The contract, valued at £250,000, has been signed and is active, with an initial three-month duration, including an option to extend for an additional three months. The procurement evaluation period included a standstill following the award notification, which concluded on 30th May 2022, allowing for any review procedures before the contract's finalisation.

This procurement opportunity is particularly suited for businesses specialising in calibration and maintenance services for medical equipment, especially those accredited to ISO 9001:2015 and registered with SSIP. Companies that can supply genuine manufacturer parts and have experience working in healthcare environments will find themselves well-positioned to compete. Given the NHS's ongoing commitment to high-quality service provision, businesses that have a track record with relevant frameworks, such as the NHS Supply Chain, are likely to benefit from these contracts and expand their presence within the healthcare sector.
