The award was published on 30th June 2026, and the contract is set to commence on 22nd July 2026, with an end date of 21st July 2030. The value of the contract is GBP 400,000, with opportunities for additional purchases if required by the surgical team, across various regions in the UK including UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, UKI, UKJ, and UKK.
