Summary of the contracting process

The North London NHS Foundation Trust is initiating a procurement process for the provision and supply of medical gases and cylinders, classified under the CPV code 24111500. The contracting process, updated on 23 April 2025, involves a procurement method that did not include prior publication of a call for competition, indicating a direct award as per the LPP Total Pharmaceutical Gas Solutions Framework. The health sector-focused procurement is located in London, with deliveries planned for multiple regions including UKI31 and UKI43. The procurement, categorized mainly as goods, has reached the award stage with a contract value adjustment from £300,000 to £330,000 confirmed in the recent amendment.

This procurement presents a notable opportunity for businesses specialising in medical and pharmaceutical gas supplies, particularly those capable of meeting the precise requirements specified under the established framework. Although the specific tender was awarded to BOC Ltd, it highlights avenues for large-scale suppliers with a strong track record in the sector to engage with public healthcare authorities like the North London NHS Foundation Trust. The contract's limited procurement method underscores the importance of building solid relationships and meeting stringent specifications to form part of such direct award processes.
