Summary of the contracting process

The Belfast Health & Social Care Trust has completed a direct award contract for the maintenance and routine servicing of LithoClast Trilogy equipment. This procurement process, under the title "Maintenance of LithoClast Trilogy," is classified under the "services" category, specifically focusing on repair and maintenance. The contract, valued at £238,200 gross, commences on 8th May 2026 and concludes on 30th April 2030, with a possibility of extension until 2036. The procurement was necessitated by the exclusive servicing rights held by Boston Scientific Limited, the supplier, highlighting a tailored approach due to intellectual property considerations. The equipment is maintained at the Belfast Health & Social Care Trust's premises in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those in the medical equipment maintenance industry with a capacity to work collaboratively under exclusive agreements or intellectual property constraints. Companies with capabilities in sophisticated medical equipment repair are well-suited for contracts of this nature, especially those who can work within a framework of long-term service provision. Although the primary supplier, Boston Scientific, holds exclusive rights, this procurement highlights potential future openings for businesses that align with similar legal and technical specifications under the regional renewal programmes expected to extend through 2036.
