Summary of the contracting process

Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust has successfully awarded a contract for the procurement of the ORSIM Bronchoscopy Simulator along with its associated paediatric and pulmonology software modules. The procurement process was completed via a direct method, using a "below threshold - without competition" approach, ensuring a swift acquisition of these specialised goods. This contract, which commenced on 31st March 2026 and concluded on 1st April 2026, falls under the industry category of goods, specifically cardiac stimulation devices. The supplier chosen is Cardiac Services, noted as the sole authorised distributor in the UK for the ORSIM system, reinforcing the product's proprietary nature. The transaction was valued at £24,075, with the gross amount being £28,890.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in medical simulation technology, particularly those capable of providing niche, high-value medical equipment. Companies like Cardiac Services that have established themselves as sole distributors for specific products have the advantage of a direct procurement route, circumventing competitive tender processes. Businesses adept at forming exclusive distribution partnerships or possessing unique qualifications could leverage similar opportunities within the healthcare sector, particularly within NHS frameworks, to expand their market presence and enhance their portfolio of specialised medical tools and software solutions.
