Summary of the contracting process

The East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust has concluded a procurement process for the purchase of operating tables under the NHS Supply Chain Framework. The procurement falls in the goods category and targets the healthcare industry, specifically covering operating and mobile interventional radiology tables, along with related accessories and services. The procurement covered by the GPA utilised a limited procurement method without prior call for competition due to its specific framework agreement nature. The contract, valued at GBP 125,235.53, was awarded to Hill-Rom Limited and was signed on 26th January 2026. The delivery location for the goods is within the region of UKH14, aligning with the buyer's address in Colchester, UK.

This procurement presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for suppliers specialising in medical equipment and devices. Companies with expertise in producing high-quality operating tables and possessing the capacity to fulfil framework agreements, like those stipulated by the NHS, would be well-suited to compete in similar future tenders. In particular, small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) offering innovative solutions in healthcare supplies can position themselves advantageously for subsequent opportunities within the NHS procurement landscape. The award to Hill-Rom Limited underscores the demand for competitive pricing and reliable product delivery within the healthcare sector.
