Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process for the "UHB - TomoTherapy System Maintenance Contract" was conducted by University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust. This tender, classified under the health services industry category, involves the maintenance of a TomoTherapy System located in Birmingham, UK. The procurement was completed through a direct award method, justifying its approach by citing in-house equipment maintenance as the rationale, with key dates indicating the process's completion on 10th April 2026. The contract, valued at £161,684.40 gross, was awarded to Accuray International Sàrl, a large company based in Switzerland, and covers a contract period from 10th April 2026 until 31st December 2026.

This contract presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for companies involved in health services and medical equipment maintenance. Large enterprises with expertise in sophisticated medical systems like TomoTherapy and those capable of offering high-quality maintenance work would find it advantageous to engage in similar tenders. The specifics of this direct award highlight the importance of in-house maintenance expertise, indicating a niche market for specialised maintenance services. Suppliers with a proven track record in health-based service contracts or those looking to expand geographically to the UK health sector could well position themselves for future opportunities of this kind.
