Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Northern Lincolnshire and Goole NHS Foundation Trust procured bulk medical gases for use by its healthcare services. The requirement covers the supply of medical gases in bulk rather than general hospital supplies, classified under CPV 24111500. Delivery is associated with the Trust’s Pharmacy Department at Diana Princess of Wales Hospital, Scartho Road, Grimsby, North East Lincolnshire. The purchasing organisation is the Northern Lincolnshire and Goole NHS Foundation Trust, a public healthcare body serving hospital services in the area. This opportunity is therefore relevant to businesses supplying bulk medical gases to NHS hospitals, particularly those able to deliver reliably to hospital pharmacy and clinical infrastructure in Grimsby and the surrounding Trust estate.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a limited procedure using a framework agreement, by direct award without a prior call for competition. The stated rationale was continuation of supplies by the incumbent supplier, with infrastructure already in place. The award went to BOC LIMITED for the medical-gas requirement. The contract value is £830,911.32 including the currency stated as GBP. The contract was signed on 23 July 2026. Evaluation was based on price. One bid was recorded for the lot. The procurement records the requirement as a single lot, although that lot is marked cancelled while the associated award and contract are active; the award outcome remains recorded against the bulk medical gases requirement.

This procurement demonstrates established NHS demand for bulk medical gases at a substantial hospital-supply scale, with purchasing conducted through a framework and a direct-award route. A competitor seeking to satisfy the same requirement in future would need a dependable bulk medical-gas supply operation, the technical ability to support hospital infrastructure already used for delivery and distribution, and sufficient capacity to maintain continuity of clinical supplies. Experience serving NHS or comparable acute healthcare environments would help demonstrate operational credibility, particularly around pharmacy and hospital-site requirements. Because the recorded evaluation basis was price, a credible supplier would also need competitive and transparent pricing alongside reliable service. Businesses already participating in relevant frameworks and able to support the Trust’s Grimsby facilities are best aligned.
