Summary of the contracting process

On 3rd February 2026, University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust awarded a contract for the repair of a CT scanner to GE Healthcare Limited. The procurement was focused on emergency repair services for the GE Revolution CT Scanner at Princess Royal Hospital, located in Worthing, UK. The procurement method followed was a direct award due to the urgent need for a specific new tube supplied by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), facilitating a swift repair without the usual standstill period. The industry category falls under the repair and maintenance services of medical and surgical equipment, with the contract for services becoming active on the 4th February 2026 and extending for a year, reflecting an updated scope of a 12-month warranty period.

This direct award process represents substantial opportunities for businesses in the medical equipment repair sector, particularly those capable of offering rapid response times and proprietary components. Large, established suppliers like GE Healthcare are suitable, given the technical complexity and critical nature of the task which necessitates original parts and familiarisation with specific healthcare equipment. The trust's reliance on OEM solutions underscores a marketplace where highly specialised equipment repairs can leverage growth, particularly for entities capable of providing swift, reliable, and certified repair services.
