UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University of Cumbria procured mobile imaging equipment for its Institute of Health department. This is a goods requirement for medical imaging equipment, covering equipment to be delivered in the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is a public university based in Cumbria. The requirement is relevant to manufacturers, distributors, equipment suppliers and specialist healthcare technology businesses able to provide mobile imaging solutions for an academic health setting. The procurement concerns the supply of equipment rather than construction, consultancy or general facilities management. The named requirement is Mobile Image Equipment, and the equipment classification covers imaging equipment for medical, dental and veterinary use. The work is associated with the university’s Institute of Health and its operational or teaching needs.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a below-threshold procedure described as “below threshold - unknown” and was organised as one completed lot. GE Healthcare Financial Services Ltd was awarded the contract, which was signed on 23 July 2026. The contract runs from 24 July 2026 to 30 April 2031, with a gross value of £140,833.20. The award is recorded as active and the contract is active. The published outcome identifies the winning supplier and confirms that the requirement was evaluated through the procurement process, although no specific scoring criteria are stated in the available outcome. This is therefore an awarded university equipment purchase, rather than an opportunity for new bids on this contract.

This award demonstrates established demand from the University of Cumbria for mobile medical imaging equipment for its Institute of Health. Businesses considering future work with this buyer would need a credible capability to supply appropriate mobile imaging equipment for an academic health environment, with the product knowledge, technical support and delivery arrangements needed for specialist healthcare technology. The successful supplier was GE Healthcare Financial Services Ltd, indicating that a specialist healthcare equipment or related financial-services supplier can satisfy the requirement. Competitors should be able to show a relevant portfolio of medical imaging equipment, reliable fulfilment, and the organisational capacity to support the university’s requirement over a substantial contract term. The opportunity is most relevant to focused medical equipment manufacturers, distributors and specialist suppliers.
