Summary of the contracting process

The Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has completed a public procurement process for the "Cath Lab 1 Replacement - GWH" project, located in Swindon, UK. This procurement falls under the medical equipment and construction work categories. The process, initiated via a direct award method, aimed to replace a Cath Lab as part of a strategic replacement programme to ensure interoperability and maintain service quality. The award was given to Philips Electronics UK Ltd, with the contract valued at £1,027,455.84 and scheduled to run from 1st May 2026 to 30th April 2027. The procurement stage is currently at the Award phase, with key dates including a scheduled future signature date of 30th December 2025, ahead of financial year-end requirements.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses in the medical equipment and construction sectors, particularly those with capability in supplying or supporting angiography and hybrid theatre equipment. Companies that ensure seamless integration with existing NHS systems or have experience in maintaining high-quality healthcare infrastructure could find growth prospects here. Given the focus on clear accountability, interoperability, and strategic planning, businesses with expertise in these areas and those proficient in managing complex equipment installations would be well-suited to compete in similar procurement opportunities.

Notice Title

Cath Lab 1 Replacement - GWH

Notice Description

A direct award has been undertaken for the replacement of a Cath Lab via the NHSSC Framework for the supply of Angiography & Hybrid Theatre Equipment and Related Services

Procurement Information

Interoperability Assurance: The Trust will maintain full interoperability across all X-Ray modality equipment. Awarding to Philips Electronics UK avoids the need for an additional licence (estimated at PS10,000) that would otherwise be required to integrate with existing systems such as CVIS. Clear Accountability: Retaining a single supplier for infrastructure ensures clear accountability and liability for service maintenance and equipment issues, reducing the risk of downtime caused by disputes between multiple suppliers. Strategic Replacement Programme: Working in partnership with one supplier enables the Trust to implement a planned replacement programme, minimising clinical disruption and safeguarding patient services. Staff Familiarity and Training Efficiency: Staff are already trained and experienced with Philips equipment, eliminating the need for extensive retraining and avoiding delays before services can commence. Coordinated Maintenance: Equipment maintenance will be managed under a single contract, allowing planned downtime to be scheduled and coordinated effectively, reducing the impact on clinical services.
