Summary of the contracting process

The Newcastle Upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has successfully completed the procurement process for the supply of five Xvivo Heart Assist Transport Perfusion Sets. This procurement falls within the industry category of storage containers (CPV code: 44613400) and is located in the UK region UKC22. The procurement method applied was a limited award procedure without prior publication due to the unique technology of Xvivo perfusion sets being the only suitable option for Heart Assist Equipment. The contract was awarded to XVIVO B.V. on 19th February 2025, with a total value of £118,750.

This tender provides a strategic opportunity for businesses operating in the specialised medical equipment sector, particularly those involved in the provision of advanced perfusion technologies. The unique requirements and regulatory considerations, such as the derogation from MHRA for compassionate use, indicate that businesses with niche expertise and established reputations in the healthcare industry are well-suited to compete in similar tenders. As such, suppliers already familiar with stringent medical regulations and possessing unique technological solutions will find valuable business growth opportunities through tenders of this nature.
