Summary of the contracting process

The Belfast Health & Social Care Trust has completed a procurement process under the title "BHSCT Bedpan Washer Renewal Phase 2," which was managed through a direct award method. This process, completed on 7th October 2025, involved the procurement of 15 Meiko Topline 20 (DT-ND/V) bedpan washers, ensuring compliance with EN 15883 standards. The procurement, valued at £150,000 GBP net (or £180,000 GBP gross), falls under the goods category relating to sterilisation, disinfection, and hygiene devices. The procurement process, affecting the Northern Ireland region (UKN), has a contract period from 1st November 2025 to 31st March 2026, with a standstill period ending on 16th October 2025.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities, particularly for businesses specialising in medical and hygiene device supply. The contractual requirement for new Meiko washers, due to non-compliance of existing units lacking chemical dosing monitoring, creates an exclusive supply opportunity for firms like EMSA Belfast, the sole supplier for Northern Ireland. SMEs with capabilities in servicing and installing medical-grade appliances or those looking to partner in public sector projects could leverage this opportunity to expand their market presence. The tender embodies a clear preference for continuity and compatibility, which could interest businesses already servicing similar contracts within the healthcare sector.

Notice Title

BHSCT Bedpan Washer Renewal Phase 2

Notice Description

Procurement of 15 no. Meiko Topline 20 (DT-ND/V) bedpan washers compliant to EN 15883. Includes for delivery to each individual location, connection, installation and commissioning to NIHTM Standard.

Procurement Information

Belfast Health & Social Care Trust wishes to purchase 15 no Meiko bed pan washers to replace a batch of the Trust's older Meiko Topline 20 bed pan washers that are circa 19 years old.
