Summary of the contracting process

Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust procured service maintenance for a Rapidaer endoscope processor. The requirement covers specialist repair and maintenance of medical equipment used by the Trust, with delivery in the Hull area. It is a healthcare equipment services opportunity rather than a supply-only purchase or construction project. The procurement was made through an NHS framework agreement, with Supply Chain Coordination Limited involved as the awarded supplier. Businesses operating in medical equipment servicing, endoscopy equipment maintenance, or related healthcare engineering should regard this as relevant evidence of the Trust’s requirement for continued technical support for specialist clinical equipment.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded through a below-threshold limited competition under an NHS framework agreement. The contract was signed on 23 July 2026 and awarded to Supply Chain Coordination Limited. The contract runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. Its value is £28,353.24 excluding VAT and £34,023.88 including VAT. The requirement was treated as a single completed lot. This was a services procurement for repair and maintenance of medical equipment. The published description refers to maintenance of the Rapidaer endoscope processor for Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. The award is recorded as active and the contract is also active.

This award demonstrates demand from Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust for planned and responsive maintenance of specialist endoscopy equipment. Relevant competitors would need practical capability in servicing Rapidaer endoscope processors, medical equipment engineering expertise, and the capacity to support equipment used in a hospital environment. Credibility is likely to depend on reliable maintenance delivery, appropriately qualified technical personnel, effective repair arrangements, and an understanding of clinical equipment service requirements. Experience of NHS procurement routes and framework agreements would also be commercially relevant, because this requirement was awarded through an NHS framework rather than an unrestricted open tender. Specialist healthcare engineering firms and medical equipment maintenance providers are the most directly aligned competitors.
