Summary of the contracting process

NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, has completed the award stage of a public contract titled "Provision of Accreditation to ISO 13485:2016 for Sterile Services." The Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board is responsible for facilitating the procurement process. The contract involved a direct award to SGS United Kingdom, a large supplier. The procurement was conducted below threshold without competition, focusing on auditing, sterilisation, disinfection, and hygiene services in Cardiff, United Kingdom. The contract value is £80,767.50 (ex VAT), with a gross amount of £96,920.98. The contract period is from 7th July 2025 to 6th July 2026, with the future signature date scheduled for 1st July 2025.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in medical equipment, auditing, and hygiene services, particularly those that comply with ISO 13485:2016 standards. The contracting process favoured a direct award due to the specific requirements, indicating opportunities for businesses that demonstrate niche expertise in sterile service accreditations. While the direct award to SGS United Kingdom is complete, similar opportunities could be pursued by SMEs with relevant specialisations interested in future collaborations with NHS Wales and other sub-central government authorities.
