Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, acting on behalf of Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board, has completed the award phase of a procurement process for the service, validation, and weekly testing of Poka Yoke endoscope washers. This direct award was made under the Procurement Act 2023 due to the unique capability requirements that only the incumbent supplier, S V B Engineering, could fulfil. The contract, valued at £39,730, spans from 22nd June 2026 to 21st June 2027 and is categorised under repair and maintenance services. It includes the delivery region of the United Kingdom, particularly focused in Wales, with potential for business opportunities that adhere to section 43 of the Procurement Act 2023.

This procurement presents a growth opportunity for businesses specializing in the niche domain of medical equipment maintenance, particularly those capable of executing technical validation and testing services. Given the bespoke nature of the services required, companies with a proven track record in the healthcare maintenance sector, especially those with experience in endoscope washer systems, would be strategically positioned to engage with similar future NHS procurement opportunities. Although this specific contract was awarded without competition, understanding the requirements can provide insights for companies looking to strengthen their portfolio and capability offerings, positioning themselves for future tenders in this domain.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Service, Validation and weekly testing of Poka Yoke Endoscope Washers

Notice Description

Direct award under the Procurement Act 2023 (Section 43) for the provision of service, validation and weekly testing of Poka Yoke endoscope washers. A market engagement exercise was undertaken via the NHS Supply Chain Endoscope Maintenance framework, issuing expressions of interest to 35 suppliers. Responses received did not demonstrate the capability to maintain the existing equipment. It has therefore been determined that only the incumbent supplier is able to deliver the required services and a direct award is justified. Total contract value: PS39,730.
