UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Christie NHS Foundation Trust bought bespoke made-to-measure lymphoedema garments for patient care. This is a goods requirement covering the provision of specialist garments rather than a general clothing supply. The buying organisation is The Christie NHS Foundation Trust, based on Wilmslow Road in Manchester. The selected supplier, Haddenham Healthcare Limited, is a large UK healthcare business. The requirement would suit manufacturers and specialist medical garment suppliers able to produce, fit and supply bespoke lymphoedema garments for an NHS hospital. The relevant product classification is CPV 18300000, garments. The procurement relates to one completed requirement and one supplier, with the garments awarded as a single lot.

The procurement has been completed and awarded to Haddenham Healthcare Limited. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, under the stated legal basis of the Procurement Act 2023. The contract was signed on 12 July 2026 and ran from 12 July to 12 August 2026. Its value was £10,000 excluding VAT and £12,000 including VAT. The contract remains recorded as active, while the tender is complete. The award covered the single lot for lymphoedema garments. The published outcome identifies Haddenham Healthcare Limited as the supplier. No competitive evaluation basis or bid requirements are recorded for this direct, below-threshold procurement.

This outcome demonstrates a specific purchasing need at The Christie NHS Foundation Trust for bespoke made-to-measure lymphoedema garments. A credible future supplier would need specialist capability in lymphoedema garment manufacture, accurate patient measurement and fitting, and the ability to supply garments suitable for clinical use. Experience serving NHS hospitals or comparable healthcare organisations would help demonstrate understanding of clinical requirements, ordering processes and patient-focused delivery. Suppliers should also be able to manage bespoke specifications consistently and provide a dependable service for a defined hospital requirement. The procurement was handled through a direct below-threshold route, so familiarity with proportionate NHS purchasing and the ability to engage clearly with the Trust would be commercially relevant when this requirement is considered again.
