Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for a 12-month maintenance contract for two Avenio Edge systems, provided by Roche Diagnostics Ltd, has been completed. The buying organisation is Birmingham Women's and Children's NHS Foundation Trust, located at Steelhouse Lane, Birmingham, United Kingdom. The procurement, managed by the University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, was carried out using a direct method without competition, falling below the threshold. The contract started on 23rd June 2026 and will end on 22nd June 2027, with a total contract value of £84,000 (gross). The award for this services category contract was finalised on 3rd August 2026.

This contract represents a fruitful opportunity for businesses specialising in medical equipment maintenance services, particularly those who can offer cost-efficient and high-standard support for advanced diagnostic systems. While the procurement was not open for competition due to its below-threshold classification, understanding the needs and maintenance requirements of healthcare systems like those used by NHS Trusts can position businesses favourably for future direct awards or competitive tenders within the public health sector.
