Summary of the contracting process

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured a supply of various medical consumables from Steris Solutions Limited. The requirement covers goods used by the NHS hospital, with the awarded items classified as medical consumables. Delivery is associated with the Cambridge area. The buying organisation is Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, based on Hills Road in Cambridge. The selected supplier is Steris Solutions Limited, a large UK company based in Leicester. This is a hospital consumables supply requirement rather than a service, construction or facilities-management contract, and is relevant to manufacturers, distributors and specialist suppliers of clinical and medical consumable products able to serve an NHS hospital in Cambridge.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust used a direct award below the applicable threshold without competition. One lot was awarded to Steris Solutions Limited on 30 July 2026. The contract was signed on 30 July 2026 and runs from 30 July 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its value is £44,838 excluding VAT, or £53,805 including VAT. The contract is active. The published information identifies a single supplier and a single awarded lot for the supply of various medical consumables. The award was made without a competitive procedure, so the procurement does not provide evidence of an open tender evaluation or scored competition for this requirement.

For suppliers that did not win this contract, the award provides a clear indication that Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust buys recurring clinical consumables through direct, below-threshold purchasing routes. A credible future supplier would need a dependable range of medical consumables, reliable stock availability, distribution capability and the capacity to fulfil routine hospital requirements. Experience supplying NHS hospitals or comparable healthcare organisations would help demonstrate an understanding of clinical purchasing, product consistency, delivery controls and operational continuity. The selected supplier is a large specialist company, indicating that scale and established supply arrangements may be important for this buyer. Businesses should focus on the specific consumables covered by the requirement and on building a route to engage with the Trust before similar purchasing decisions arise.
