Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process conducted by NHS Education for Scotland involved the acquisition of a slitlamp simulator for training purposes, under the CPV code for medical equipment. The contract was awarded to Haag Streit UK, with a final contract value of £401,992.25, signed on 23rd December 2025. The procurement followed an open procedure, inviting interested parties to submit electronic bids by 11th November 2025. The location of delivery for this project is within the UKM region, specifically centralised around Edinburgh. The procurement, now in the award stage, supports the legal framework indicated by CELEX: 32014L0024 and was covered under the Government Procurement Agreement (GPA).

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for companies that manufacture or supply medical training equipment. The emphasis on technical quality in award criteria, constituting 60% of the overall evaluation, suggests that businesses with a strong innovation and technical background in medical simulation would excel. Additionally, the requirement for associated software and hardware options indicates potential recurring business beyond the initial contract. Given the defined timelines and clearly stated procurement procedures, companies that are familiar with the open procurement process and can deliver robust, high-quality training solutions would be well-suited to compete in such procurements.
