Summary of the contracting process

Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust procured services for an AMARIS Model 750S excimer laser system. The requirement covers the laser system, serial number S610, together with its accessories: laser panel PC, patient bed, printer, GTX3 uninterruptible power supply, and Sirius and IRX3 imaging systems. The work is medical and surgical equipment repair and maintenance, including servicing the laser and its associated equipment. The buying organisation is Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust, with the equipment associated with Trafford Hospital in Trafford. This is a single-service requirement for maintaining a specialist ophthalmic laser system and its supporting hardware, rather than a purchase of general medical equipment or standalone IT services.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a below-threshold direct award without competition. Instinctive Ltd was awarded the contract on 27 April 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract runs from 28 April 2026 to 27 April 2027, with one further one-year renewal option and a maximum end date of 27 April 2028. Its value is £35,764 excluding VAT, or £42,916.80 including VAT. The contract is below the relevant threshold. The arrangement includes an option for an additional year and a service-uptime measure covering service completed within 12 months. The award covers the single completed lot.

This procurement indicates demand from a major NHS foundation trust for specialist maintenance of an AMARIS Model 750S excimer laser and its integrated imaging, patient-support, printing and power equipment. Suppliers well placed for comparable future requirements would need demonstrable capability in repairing and maintaining medical and surgical equipment, with specific technical competence in excimer laser systems and associated ophthalmic imaging equipment. Relevant experience should include working across the complete system rather than servicing the laser in isolation, understanding equipment such as Sirius and IRX3 imaging systems, and supporting safe clinical operation. The requirement is suited to an established specialist provider with sufficient technical capacity to deliver the maintenance service and meet the trust’s service-uptime expectation.
