UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Business Services Organisation Procurement and Logistics Service is buying a total bed management service for the South Eastern Health and Social Care Trust. The requirement covers hospital bedding services and the supply and management of beds for medical use, hospital beds, mattresses and pneumatic mattresses. Work will be delivered in Northern Ireland. The procurement is divided into four product groupings: one covering 12 products, one covering a single product, and two covering two products each. This suits suppliers able to provide hospital bed and mattress products together with the associated service to support their management in a healthcare setting. The requirement is categorised as a service, with hospital-bedding services as the main classification.

The procurement reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure. Enquiries had to be submitted by 28 September 2026 at 3:00pm, and offers by 5 October 2026 at 3:00pm. The intended award decision date was 16 October 2026. The total estimated value is £7,437,500 excluding VAT, or £8,925,000 including VAT. Each lot has the same intended contract period, from 1 March 2027 to 29 February 2032, with an option to extend by up to 24 months, to 28 February 2034. Lot 1 is valued at £7,065,625 excluding VAT and is scored 50% quality, 10% social value and 40% cost. Lots 2, 3 and 4 are evaluated on cost alone and are valued at £74,375, £74,375 and £223,125 excluding VAT respectively. Offers may be submitted electronically in English.

This opportunity is suited to suppliers with an established range of hospital beds, mattresses and pneumatic mattresses, particularly businesses that can support a total bed management service rather than supplying isolated products only. Lot 1 requires the largest product grouping and includes a scored quality assessment involving a clinical adviser and an electronic online system, so bidders for that lot should be able to demonstrate clinically informed service delivery and suitable digital management capability. Social value is also assessed for Lot 1. Lots 2, 3 and 4 are smaller product groupings and are evaluated entirely on overall total cost, which may suit focused manufacturers, specialist distributors or other suppliers able to offer the specified products competitively. The four-lot structure allows businesses to target relevant product groupings.
