UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust procured maintenance services for its Holmium Pulse POS equipment. The requirement covers ongoing maintenance and agreed pricing for this medical equipment, within the trust’s engineering, biomedical equipment management and servicing needs. The work is for the trust in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, at its Hardwick Lane site. This is a specialist healthcare equipment maintenance opportunity rather than a supply-only purchase, construction project or general facilities-management service. It is relevant to medical equipment manufacturers, authorised service providers and specialist engineering businesses with the technical capability to maintain Holmium Pulse POS systems and support their safe operational use in an NHS setting.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Boston Scientific. It used a below-threshold limited competition. The award was made on 9 July 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The active contract runs from 30 November 2026 to 29 November 2030. Its value is £44,000 gross, including any applicable taxes, and the procurement was below the relevant threshold. There was one lot, covering the maintenance service. The award relates to repair and maintenance services for medical and surgical equipment. The published outcome records Boston Scientific as the selected supplier, with the contract remaining active for the stated period.

This procurement provides a clear example of West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust’s demand for specialist maintenance of Holmium Pulse POS equipment, with pricing agreed through a limited competition. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable technical expertise in this equipment or an equivalent manufacturer-authorised service capability, together with engineers able to maintain medical and surgical equipment safely in an NHS environment. Relevant suppliers would also need reliable service delivery, appropriate maintenance processes, and the operational capacity to support the trust’s biomedical equipment requirements over a multi-year arrangement. The successful supplier profile indicates that specialist product knowledge and the ability to provide focused equipment support are central to this requirement.
