Summary of the contracting process

Royal Surrey County Hospital NHS Foundation Trust procured a four-year service and maintenance arrangement for six Hillrom intensive care unit beds, identified as P013AW1013, P013AW1015, P013AW1016, P014AW1022, P018AW1083 and R097AW1871. The requirement covers repair and maintenance of medical and surgical equipment, rather than the supply of new beds. The work supports the Trust’s intensive care equipment and is delivered in Surrey, East and West Sussex. The named NHS buyer is based at Royal Surrey County Hospital on Egerton Road in Guildford. The procurement formed part of a wider arrangement associated with Lot 1 of an earlier process, and the awarded supplier is Hill-Rom Limited, a large UK company based in Thetford.

The procurement is complete and was awarded directly to Hill-Rom Limited without competition under a below-threshold procedure. The award is active and relates to one lot. The contract was signed and began on 22 June 2026, with an end date of 31 March 2030. Its value is £26,139.78 excluding VAT, or £31,367.74 including VAT. The award concerns the full intensive care bed maintenance requirement and uses a service classification for repair and maintenance of medical and surgical equipment. Hill-Rom Limited is the selected supplier. The contract itself is active, so this is an outcome notice rather than an opportunity to submit a bid. The published procurement description refers to NHS Shared Business Services quote reference CQ-0000327785.

This award demonstrates a defined NHS requirement for specialist maintenance of intensive care beds across the Surrey, East and West Sussex area. Suppliers seeking to compete for comparable work for Royal Surrey County Hospital would need demonstrable capability in servicing and repairing medical and surgical equipment, with particular competence in intensive care bed systems and the ability to support named assets over a multi-year service period. Credibility would also depend on reliable engineering response, planned preventive maintenance, fault diagnosis, parts and technical support, and the capacity to cover clinical equipment across the relevant area without disrupting patient services. The direct award to Hill-Rom Limited indicates the incumbent or selected provider had a close fit with the specified bed equipment and NHS procurement route.
