Summary of the contracting process

NHS Lanarkshire procured custom medical theatre and procedure packs, classified as medical consumables and medical kits. The requirement was divided into theatre packs, radiology packs and cath lab packs. Theatre packs support ENT, general, gynaecological, orthopaedic, robotic and vascular surgery. Radiology packs support biopsy and angiography procedures, while cath lab packs support pacing, cardiac and central venous catheter procedures. Delivery was to University Hospital Wishaw, University Hospital Hairmyres and University Hospital Monklands. The buying organisation is NHS Lanarkshire. This is a goods supply requirement for a healthcare consumables manufacturer, distributor or specialist supplier able to provide procedure-specific, customised sterile or clinical packs to hospital departments.

The procurement is complete and used an open procedure. Seven bids were received for each of Lots 2 and 3, including five SME bids in each case; all bids were electronic. Kimal plc was awarded Lot 2, Custom Radiology Packs, and Lot 3, Custom Cath Lab Packs. Both contracts were signed on 12 August 2026. The Lot 2 contract value is £616,896 and the Lot 3 value is £1,261,197. Each contract has an initial 1,080-day period, with NHS Lanarkshire able to extend for up to four further years. Lot 2 and Lot 3 were marked cancelled in the tender data despite active awards and contracts. Evaluation for both used quality and technical criteria worth 40%, desktop evaluation worth 10%, and price worth 50%.

This procurement demonstrates recurring NHS Lanarkshire demand for customised, procedure-specific clinical packs across operating theatres, radiology and cardiac catheterisation services. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement would need to design or configure packs around detailed clinical workflows, maintain reliable manufacturing and supply capacity, and support delivery to multiple hospital sites. Relevant experience would include theatre, biopsy, angiography, pacing, cardiac or central venous catheter procedures, with strong quality assurance for medical consumables and kits. The competition also shows that smaller businesses can participate: five of the seven bidders for each awarded lot were SMEs. Credible competitors would therefore need a clear technical response, competitive pricing and the operational capacity to supply NHS hospital departments consistently.
