Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, recently completed a procurement process for supplying wheelchairs, associated parts, and accessories across Cardiff and Wrexham. This initiative, under an open procurement procedure, targets the medical consumables industry, with a focus on the Supply of Wheelchairs and related accessories. While the contract was initially concluded on May 22, 2026, the requirements will be re-evaluated, and a fresh tender will be issued shortly.
