Summary of the contracting process

NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, procured surface cleaning wipes for NHS Wales hospitals and sites. The requirement supports routine stock holdings at NWSSP regional stores, with the stated purpose of protecting patient safety and reducing operational risk. This is a goods supply requirement for healthcare cleaning consumables, serving NHS operations across Wales. The purchasing organisation is acting on behalf of NHS Wales, so relevant suppliers are those able to provide surface cleaning wipes suitable for hospital and healthcare environments and to support distribution through regional stores. The requirement concerns supply rather than cleaning labour, facilities management or wider clinical products, although the published classification places it within medical equipment, pharmaceutical and personal care products.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a below-threshold direct award without competition. Gama Healthcare Ltd was selected for the wipes requirement at an awarded value of £80,000 gross, including the stated amount, in GBP. The award covers a single lot and has a contract period from 3 August 2026 to 30 September 2026. A signature milestone was scheduled for 2 August 2026. The published procurement description says NWSSP Procurement Services intends to undertake a competitive process on behalf of NHS Wales by the second quarter of 2027. The selected supplier is Gama Healthcare Ltd, based in Hemel Hempstead. The award is recorded as pending, while the tender itself is recorded as complete.

This procurement demonstrates NHS Wales demand for surface cleaning wipes to maintain routine healthcare stock and protect patient safety. Suppliers considering future work with this buyer would need dependable access to compliant surface cleaning wipes, the ability to supply hospital and NHS sites across Wales, and capacity to replenish regional stores reliably. Experience serving healthcare or other safety-critical environments would help demonstrate understanding of stock continuity, operational risk and the hygiene expectations of hospitals. The requirement is suited to an established manufacturer, distributor or specialist healthcare consumables supplier able to manage public-sector ordering and fulfilment at regional scale. The stated intention to use a competitive process for the future requirement also makes familiarity with formal tendering and evidence-based evaluation commercially relevant.
