Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process conducted by University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust involves the acquisition of consumables, specifically spares and anaesthetics consumables across their trust-wide hospital site, particularly in the anaesthetics department. Awarded on 20 March 2026, with a contract period starting from 1 January 2026 to 31 December 2026, it falls within the medical equipment industry category. The process reached the award and contract stage, marking its culmination for this cycle. The procurement method was direct and executed below the competition threshold, making it a straightforward contract without competitive bidding.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for suppliers of medical equipment and consumables, as evidenced by the award to WATERS LIMITED, an SME based in Wilmslow. With a contract value of £14,000, suppliers in the medical equipment repair and maintenance sector can leverage such contracts to expand their operations within NHS frameworks. Businesses that specialise in medical and surgical equipment or service provision can find similar opportunities in direct procurement processes, potentially leading to collaboration or direct awards with prominent public health authorities like the University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust.
