Summary of the contracting process

The United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust has completed a procurement process for the purchase of four ultrasound systems intended for the Lincoln Emergency Department. This contract was facilitated through the NHS Supply Chain's Ultrasound Scanners framework, without an accompanying maintenance contract, and utilised MDCG capital funding from a £1 million allocation to the trust. The procurement was carried out as a limited competition under a below-threshold procurement method, with key activities being completed by 20th October 2025. Covering the medical equipment industry category, this contract involves the supply of goods located in Lincoln, UK, with the contract being signed on 7th October 2025 and concluded on 19th November 2025.

This procurement provides potential opportunities for businesses in the medical equipment sector, particularly those capable of supplying advanced diagnostic machines as required by healthcare facilities. Companies like Mindray, which has successfully been awarded this contract, demonstrate that large-scale suppliers of medical technology are well-suited to compete for such tenders. The acquisition of significant contracts from public health organisations not only contributes to the immediate supply of goods but also builds a long-term relationship with the public sector, fostering further growth and visibility within the healthcare market. Businesses involved in high-quality equipment manufacturing are well positioned to benefit from similar opportunities.
