UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University of South Wales procured an Ultima™ CardiO2® system, a medical equipment product for use in its operations. The requirement is for the supply of the named system rather than construction, consultancy or a broader healthcare service. Delivery is in South East Wales, with the university based in Pontypridd. The procurement is categorised as goods and concerns medical equipment. Medical device manufacturers, authorised distributors and specialist healthcare-equipment suppliers familiar with the Ultima™ CardiO2® system are the most directly relevant businesses. The requirement is specific to one identified system, so suppliers would need to be able to provide that product and support the buyer’s operational needs in South East Wales.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded directly without competition under a below-threshold procedure. Medical Graphics UK Limited was awarded the contract on 22 July 2026. The contract was signed on 22 July 2026 and runs from 23 July to 31 July 2026. Its value is £56,165.43 excluding VAT and £67,398.52 including VAT. The contract is active, while the tender is complete. There was one lot covering the Ultima™ CardiO2® system. The published process records a direct award route rather than a competitive tender, and no separate quality, price or other evaluation weighting is stated. The buyer is the University of South Wales.

This award indicates a specific requirement from the University of South Wales for specialist medical equipment, delivered for use in South East Wales. For a supplier monitoring future demand from this buyer, the relevant capability is the manufacture, authorised distribution or technical supply of the Ultima™ CardiO2® system, supported by the ability to fulfil a tightly defined equipment requirement. A credible competitor would need established access to the named product, reliable delivery arrangements and sufficient technical knowledge to discuss or support its use. The successful supplier, Medical Graphics UK Limited, is recorded as a large business, indicating that the buyer has previously sourced this specialist requirement from an established medical-equipment provider.
