Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, which is engaging in a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) to potentially award a contract for radio frequency ablation equipment and consumables. The procurement falls under the "Medical consumables" category, with the main procurement focus being goods. Located at Colney Lane, Norwich, Norfolk, NR4 7UY, the procurement process is at the award stage, intending to finalise a pricing agreement directly with Medtronic Limited, the incumbent supplier. This procedure was conducted without a prior call for competition under the PSR Regulations 2023, outside the typical public contract regulations, and required acceptable costs to maintain existing operations within the department. The associated standstill period commenced on 2nd June 2026, following this notice's publication.

This procurement offers significant business growth opportunities, particularly for suppliers adept in providing medical devices and consumables for healthcare sectors. Given the procurement method's nature—a direct award on grounds relating to existing infrastructure and systems—businesses capable of demonstrating competitive pricing and product compatibility may find similar opportunities advantageous. Suppliers who are already ingrained in the NHS supply chain, or those aiming to enter it, will realise potential benefits by supporting ongoing technical and operational needs commonly sought by public healthcare providers.
