UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust has completed a procurement process titled "JAC: Phantom replacement for medical physics," aimed at replacing an MRI QA phantom for routine quality assurance testing of imaging systems. This contract falls under the category of magnetic resonance imaging equipment, with a key focus on goods procurement. Located in Worthing, UK, the procurement was conducted directly, below the threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 18th March 2026, and the period of the contract extended from 18th March 2026 to 31st March 2026. The procurement stage has culminated in awarding the contract to Leeds Test Objects T/A MediScientific, a large-scale supplier based in North Yorkshire.

For businesses, particularly those operating within the medical equipment sector, this tender illustrates a potential avenue for expanding their service offerings to major healthcare institutions like the University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust. While this specific contract was awarded directly, similar opportunities may occasionally arise, encouraging suppliers of medical imaging equipment to engage with public sector entities. Companies with expertise in the production or supply of medical equipment, specifically MRI-related technologies, should consider keeping abreast of such tenders, as they can lead to significant long-term business growth prospects.
