Summary of the contracting process

NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services procured repair and maintenance services for four Wassenburg Typhoon Plus Plasma Systems across the Hywel Dda University Health Board area. The systems are located in Hospital Sterile Services Departments and dry flexible endoscopes after decontamination. The requirement supports reliable decontamination operations, patient safety, regulatory compliance and the continued availability of endoscopes for clinical use. The work is therefore specialist medical-equipment maintenance, focused on Wassenburg Typhoon Plus Plasma Systems rather than general facilities maintenance. Delivery is Health Board-wide within Hywel Dda University Health Board, in Wales. The procurement was arranged through NHS Supply Chain’s framework, with NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services acting as the buying organisation.

This completed procurement used a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, through the NHS Supply Chain framework. It comprised one lot, with award evaluation based on price. The lot is recorded as cancelled, while the associated award is active and the contract is active. Wassenburg Limited was selected as supplier, with one bid received, including one electronic bid and one bid from an SME. The contract value is £61,636.12. The contract was signed on 30 July 2026 and covers 36 months of maintenance. The contract is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. No options were included. The award was made under the framework’s stated rationale, with the procurement treated as outside the scope of the relevant directive.

This requirement demonstrates demand for suppliers able to maintain Wassenburg Typhoon Plus Plasma Systems used in hospital sterile services. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need proven capability with this equipment, or demonstrable competence in equivalent plasma systems, together with the technical capacity to support four units across a Health Board-wide estate. Experience in hospital decontamination environments would be important because maintenance affects equipment uptime, regulatory compliance, patient safety and the release of flexible endoscopes for clinical use. Suppliers should be able to provide dependable planned maintenance and respond effectively to faults that could disrupt sterile-services operations. The procurement route also shows that framework-based access and the ability to compete primarily on price can be commercially significant for this buyer.
