UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust procured planned preventive maintenance for Smith & Nephew Dyonics PowerMax Elite and PowerMini orthopaedic arthroscopic shaver handpieces. The requirement covers maintenance of medical and surgical equipment used across the Trust’s hospital sites in Lincolnshire. This is a specialist healthcare equipment maintenance service rather than a supply-only purchase or general facilities maintenance contract. The work concerns arthroscopic shaver handpieces used in orthopaedic procedures, so relevant businesses are those able to maintain these specific Smith & Nephew Dyonics systems and support their use across multiple NHS hospital locations. The buying organisation is United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, based at Lincoln County Hospital in Lincoln.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. The single lot was awarded to ESU MEDICAL SOLUTIONS LIMITED, an SME. The award date was 13 July 2026 and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract runs from 15 July 2026 to 19 February 2028. Its value is £43,497 excluding VAT, or £52,196.40 including VAT. The tender used a limited procurement method, with competition restricted below the applicable threshold. The active contract covers the planned preventive maintenance requirement for the Trust’s Smith & Nephew Dyonics PowerMax Elite and PowerMini arthroscopic shaver handpieces.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award indicates focused NHS demand for planned preventive maintenance of named arthroscopic shaver handpieces, delivered across several hospital sites rather than at a single facility. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need demonstrable capability with Smith & Nephew Dyonics PowerMax Elite and PowerMini systems, together with the operational capacity to coordinate maintenance across United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust locations. Experience maintaining medical and surgical equipment would be directly relevant. The route used was a below-threshold limited competition, so businesses targeting similar work should be prepared to respond efficiently to a restricted opportunity and show a clear fit with the specified equipment and service scope.
