Cheshire West and Chester Council is the contracting authority for the procurement titled "HIA Specialist Equipment," which falls under the "goods" industry category specifically aligned with medical equipment. The procurement process, now in the award stage, was carried out through a direct method below the threshold, meaning there was no competition involved. The contract, valued at £110,000, commenced on 14th April 2025 and is set to conclude on 30th September 2025. Situated in the UK region UKD63, this tender represents a sub-central government public authority’s initiative to acquire specialist equipment for its HIA service. The contract was awarded on 7th April 2025 and announced on 1st May 2025.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for SMEs specialising in medical equipment, as evidenced by the inclusion of suppliers such as Closomat Limited, Safespaces, and SLC care T/A Healthcare Matters.
