Summary of the contracting process

West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust, a central government public authority located in Bury St Edmunds, recently completed a procurement process for Planned Preventative Maintenance and reactive works on theatre lights, examination lights, and battery backup units at West Suffolk Hospital. The contract was set within the services industry category and involved limited competition below the threshold. The award stage of the procurement concluded on 20th October 2025, with G.K Wood & Son Ltd T/A Fulbourn Medical being the awarded supplier. The contract, active since 1st August 2025, will run until 31st July 2028, with a total value of GBP 25,459.20; it had been signed on 31st July 2025.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses involved in electrical-system repair services, specifically those capable of servicing theatre and examination lights in a healthcare setting. Though the competition was limited, businesses with expertise in healthcare equipment maintenance or those looking to expand into public sector contracts within the NHS framework would find this type of contract beneficial for establishing long-term relationships and demonstrating capability in delivering essential services. Large suppliers, akin to the awarded firm, and those capable of operating within the parameters of below-threshold procurement processes may find similar opportunities appealing to leverage growth and visibility in the public sector.
