Summary of the contracting process

NHS Grampian has concluded a procurement process for the contract titled "Theatre Integrated Equipment Refurbishment", which involves the upgrade of existing medical device controllers at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary in the region of UKM50. The process reached the award stage on 23 January 2026, with the contract being awarded to Olympus KeyMed. This procurement was conducted via a limited procurement method without prior publication, justified by technical reasons, specifically the requirement for compatibility and minimal disruption using equipment from the existing manufacturer. The contract, valued at £124,454, was signed on 7 January 2026 and falls under the industry category of medical equipment.

This contract presents growth opportunities specifically for businesses that specialise in medical equipments, particularly those capable of providing technically compatible upgrades for existing hospital infrastructure. As the procurement was directly awarded due to technical expertise and compatibility needs, businesses that can demonstrate similar proprietary technology solutions may find opportunities in similar future tenders, especially within healthcare sectors requiring specific technical compliance and standards. Large-scale suppliers like Olympus KeyMed, with existing relationships or compatible product lines, are ideally positioned to meet such unique requirements in healthcare procurements.
