The trust, a public authority within the central government, operates from Birmingham, UK. The procurement falls under the services industry category, specifically focusing on the repair and maintenance of medical and surgical equipment. The limited competition procurement method was selected due to its below-threshold value, and the contract was signed on 12th April 2025, with an effective period from 13th April 2025 to 12th April 2028.
