UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust procured a post-warranty maintenance service for its neurophysiology electroencephalography (EEG) equipment. The requirement covers ongoing repair and maintenance of medical and surgical equipment, specifically EEG equipment used by the Trust’s neurophysiology service. The work is for the Trust’s hospital operations in Lincolnshire, with the buying organisation based at Lincoln County Hospital in Lincoln. The procurement is a services requirement rather than a supply or construction project. It is associated with a separate medical device capital purchase, indicating that the maintenance supports equipment acquired through that related purchase. The buyer is an NHS teaching hospitals trust responsible for delivering hospital services across United Lincolnshire.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, under the UK Procurement Act 2023. One lot was completed. Nihon Kohden UK Limited was awarded the contract on 23 February 2026, and the contract was signed on that date. The contract is active from 31 March 2028 to 30 March 2035. Its value is £53,200 excluding VAT and £63,840 including VAT. The award concerns repair and maintenance services for medical and surgical equipment, specifically the Trust’s neurophysiology EEG equipment. The procurement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender, and the selected supplier is Nihon Kohden UK Limited.

This award demonstrates sustained NHS demand for specialist maintenance of neurophysiology EEG equipment and shows that the requirement can be placed through a direct, below-threshold route. Suppliers likely to be credible when this requirement next reaches the market will need demonstrable technical capability in servicing, repairing and maintaining EEG systems, including post-warranty support. They should be able to support equipment used in a hospital neurophysiology environment, manage planned and responsive maintenance, and provide dependable service over a multi-year arrangement. Experience working with NHS trusts or comparable clinical organisations would help a competitor understand healthcare operational requirements, equipment availability and service continuity. Manufacturers, authorised service providers and specialist medical-equipment maintenance firms are the most relevant competitor groups for this buyer and requirement.
