Summary of the contracting process

The Birmingham Women's and Children's NHS Foundation Trust, in collaboration with the University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, has completed the procurement process for knee implants provided by Implantcast UK Ltd. This contract pertains to surgical goods within the industry category of medical implants, specifically surgical implants. It operates under a direct procurement method, bypassing competitive bidding, marking it as below threshold. The contract commenced on 20th January 2026 and concluded on 19th February 2026. The procurement was managed by the Birmingham and Solihull Procurement Collaborative, a shared service aimed at optimising procurement for NHS trusts in Birmingham and Solihull, United Kingdom.
