Summary of the contracting process

This procurement covers specialist maintenance services for healthcare estates and clinical equipment. The requirement includes medical pendants, operating-theatre light systems, examination lamps, theatre sliding doors and i-Suite theatres. It is divided across four service areas: pendants; theatre light systems and examination lamps; theatre sliding doors; and i-Suite theatres. The buying organisations are Belfast Health and Social Care Trust, Northern Health and Social Care Trust, South Eastern Health and Social Care Trust, Southern Health and Social Care Trust and Western Health and Social Care Trust, with the Regional Business Services Organisation Procurement and Logistics Service managing the tender for Health Service NI entities. Work is delivered across Northern Ireland, including Belfast, Antrim, Portadown and Londonderry, in hospital and healthcare settings.

The procurement has been awarded and contracts are active. The open procedure used a price-and-quality evaluation: mandatory compliance with the specification was pass/fail, social value carried 10% and price 90%. Four contracts were signed on 22 June 2026, each running from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2031, with options to extend for up to 36 months, potentially to 30 September 2034. Belfast Health and Social Care Trust awarded £4,173,969 net to Draeger Medical UK Ltd, Getinge Ltd, Accu-Science Ireland Ltd and Uniphar Medtech t/a Tekno Surgical. Northern Health and Social Care Trust awarded £1,043,412 net to Draeger. South Eastern awarded £1,316,098 net to Uniphar and Getinge. Western awarded £1,155,108 net to Getinge. Award decisions were dated 19 May 2026.

This requirement is relevant to suppliers with established capability in maintaining medical equipment and associated theatre infrastructure, particularly pendants, surgical and examination lighting, theatre doors and i-Suite systems. Credible competitors would need to demonstrate compliance with the buyer’s mid-tier technical specification, provide dependable servicing across multiple Health Service NI trusts and support equipment used in operational hospital environments. The award pattern shows that specialist manufacturers and medical technology distributors were successful, including large suppliers based in Great Britain and Ireland. Five valid tenderers competed, with bids concentrated on the pendants, theatre lighting and i-Suite requirements; the sliding-door requirement had no final-stage bids recorded. Suppliers preparing for a future requirement should therefore combine technical maintenance expertise, regional service capacity, strong pricing and a demonstrable social-value offer.
