Summary of the contracting process

Swansea Bay University Health Board procured continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) consumables and fluids for renal replacement treatment. The requirement falls within renal consumables and is a goods contract. Delivery and use are for Swansea Bay University Health Board at its site in Port Talbot, South Wales. The procurement was managed through NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, acting as the central purchasing body. The requirement covers the consumable products and fluids needed to support CRRT services, rather than equipment, construction or general healthcare provision. It is therefore relevant to manufacturers, distributors and specialist healthcare suppliers with an established range of CRRT consumables and fluids suitable for use in an NHS clinical setting.

The procurement has been awarded, with an active award to Fresenius Medical Care (UK) Limited. The contract was signed on 13 May 2025 for £1,348,483 and has a stated duration of 2,520 days. The process used a limited procedure: an award without prior publication of a call for competition, as a call-off from the NHS Supply Chain renal replacement therapies, technologies and consumables framework. One bid was received, submitted electronically, and the award criterion was price. The buyer’s rationale records a clinical evaluation, pricing and alignment with clinical needs as the basis for selecting Fresenius. The single lot is recorded as cancelled, although the related award and contract are active.

This procurement shows established demand from Swansea Bay University Health Board for specialist CRRT consumables and fluids supplied through an NHS Supply Chain framework call-off. A credible future competitor would need access to a dependable portfolio of renal replacement therapy consumables, the ability to supply consistently to an NHS health board, and evidence that its products meet clinical requirements. Suppliers should also be able to participate through relevant public-sector purchasing arrangements and compete on price while demonstrating clinical suitability. The single bid and selection of a large specialist medical supplier indicate that product fit, supply reliability and commercial value are important considerations. This is most relevant to manufacturers, authorised distributors and specialist healthcare suppliers already serving renal services.
