Summary of the contracting process

The Cardiff and Vale University Health Board, through the NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services (hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust), is at the award stage in the procurement process for Mobile Lithotripsy Services. This contract notice intends to award under the Provider Selection Regime (Wales) Regulations 2025 using a Direct Award Process, bypassing the standard Public Contracts Regulations 2015/Procurement Act 2023. The procurement is aimed at the industry category of Urologist Services and will occur in the Cardiff region, UK. This move is administrated under an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. The current standstill period requires representations by providers to be submitted by 3rd June 2026. The anticipated contract is valued at £274,200 and has yet to be formally awarded, with Focus Medical Services Ltd as the active supplier.

This tender provides opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in healthcare services, medical equipment supply, and technical staffing. Companies familiar with clinical integration practices, possessing skilled personnel in lithotripsy services, and understanding the coordination between diverse clinical pathways, such as urology and radiology, would find this contract beneficial for structured growth. SMEs like Focus Medical Services Ltd, the intended provider, demonstrate how specialised service providers can capitalise on targeted procurement opportunities without the need for competitive bidding processes, enhancing their footprint in the healthcare sector.
