Summary of the contracting process

University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust engaged in a public procurement process for "Pressure Relieving Equipment" across the Trust, with the process having reached the award and contract stage. The procurement, classified under the medical furniture category (CPV 33192000), was conducted by direct method without competition, as it was below the threshold. Located in Birmingham, UK, the Trust operates as a public authority under central government jurisdiction. The procurement commenced with contract signing on 11th March 2025, and the contract is active from 12th March 2025 to 11th March 2026, valued at £73,656 with a net amount of £61,380 GBP.

This tender offers substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in medical equipment manufacturing, particularly those capable of supplying pressure relieving solutions. It is completed under a direct procurement method that allowed a small or medium-sized enterprise (SME), IQ Medical LTD, based in Warwickshire, to secure the contract as the supplier. Businesses interested in similar opportunities should focus on niche healthcare sectors where direct, non-competitive procurement methods are applicable, as they can provide a significant advantage to SMEs and VCSEs (Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprises) looking to expand in the public sector market.
