It employs a direct procurement method without competition, as per the guidelines outlined in the GMP Contract Standing Orders. The contract, signed on 16 May 2025, runs from 16 May 2025 to 31 March 2028, with a total value of £30,000 and is managed in line with UKPGA 2023/54 legislation. The address for correspondence is 56 Oxford Street, Manchester, M1 6EU, while the activities are located within the UKD3 region.

Large-scale suppliers with established capabilities in medical equipment maintenance, such as P&A Medical, who are the awardees, are particularly well-poised to fulfil the requirements of such contracts. The partnership with a large public sector entity like the Greater Manchester Combined Authority can significantly bolster a supplier's reputation and open the door to further similar undertakings in the public sector.
