UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Birmingham Women's and Children's NHS Foundation Trust has recently completed a procurement process for Ardo breast pumps, a hospital-grade medical device supplied by Ardo Medical Ltd. This contract, falling under the category of goods, was awarded through a direct procurement method below the threshold, meaning it was awarded without competition. The procurement aligns with the legal framework of the UKPGA 2023/54. The contract, active since 27th October 2025, is designed to extend until 26th October 2026. The procurement process was facilitated by University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, which hosts the Birmingham and Solihull Procurement Collaborative, serving multiple trusts within the region. The award was officially signed on 23rd September 2025, with an overall contract value of £12,610.50, including VAT.

This tender presents a strategic opportunity for businesses involved in the manufacturing and supply of medical equipment, particularly those specialising in innovative health solutions like breast pumps, to engage with NHS trusts. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the medical devices sector that can offer competitive, high-quality products will find this tender a viable entry point into public sector procurement. Given the specific nature and requirements of the contract, businesses that provide specialised medical technologies and are capable of fulfilling direct procurement conditions below the competitive threshold can leverage such opportunities to expand their presence within the healthcare industry.
