Summary of the contracting process

The Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has completed a procurement process for the purchase of "Cath Labs Transducers," necessary for cardiology investigations. The procurement is categorised under the medical consumables industry and involved a direct award without competition, due to the specific compatibility requirements of the equipment. The contract was signed on 14th May 2026, with active status as of 1st June 2026 and an end date of 31st May 2028. The buyer, located in Gloucester, awarded the contract to ICU Medical International Limited, with a total value of £39,600, exclusive of VAT. The procurement process, marked as complete, adhered to the legal framework under the UK Public General Acts 2023/54.

The contract underscores the importance of establishing compatibility and trust within such niche sectors, which can facilitate further collaborations and long-term supplier relationships.
