Summary of the contracting process

United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust procured endoscopy infrastructure comprising workstation licences and cables. The requirement is primarily for software packages and information systems, with associated cabling supporting workstation-based endoscopy operations. The buying organisation is the NHS trust serving Lincolnshire, and the contract is centred on its hospital services in Lincoln. This is a goods procurement rather than a services or construction requirement. The scope is grouped into one completed lot and covers the combined supply of the workstation licences and cables. Businesses relevant to this requirement include suppliers of clinical or endoscopy software, information-system licences, workstation equipment and compatible cabling for NHS or other healthcare environments.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. Endosoft Ltd was awarded the single lot, and the award is active. The contract was signed on 15 July 2026 and runs from 15 July 2026 to 14 July 2027. Its value is £28,700 excluding VAT and £34,440 including VAT. The award covers the software-package and information-system element of the workstation licences and cables requirement. The process was conducted under the Procurement Act 2023, with the published legal basis identified as section 54. The contract is active and the tender status is complete.

This award demonstrates a defined NHS requirement for endoscopy infrastructure, combining workstation software licences with cables rather than a broad, general IT supply. A credible future competitor would need to supply or support software packages and information systems used in endoscopy settings, provide compatible workstation cabling, and manage the combined hardware and licensing requirement as a single supply. Experience working with NHS trusts or comparable healthcare organisations would help demonstrate an understanding of clinical operational environments, although the procurement data does not identify specific accreditations or technical qualifications. The selected supplier is recorded as a large business, so suppliers assessing a future opportunity should consider whether they have sufficient organisational capacity to deliver an integrated endoscopy workstation requirement for a teaching-hospital trust.
