UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Business Services Organisation Procurement and Logistics Service is gathering market information on the supply and delivery of sphygmomanometers and blood-pressure cuffs for use with electronic monitoring devices. The goods are medical equipment and are intended for Health and Social Care Northern Ireland (HSCNI) Trusts. The requirement concerns supplying compatible blood-pressure measurement equipment rather than clinical services, installation or construction. The buyer is a public-sector procurement organisation based in Belfast and is acting on behalf of HSCNI Trusts. Suppliers whose business covers medical devices, patient monitoring equipment, blood-pressure measurement products or healthcare consumables may find the subject relevant. The procurement is for goods, with the detailed specification and operational requirements being explored through market engagement before any future tender is developed.

This procurement is at the planning stage and is a preliminary market engagement exercise, not an invitation to tender. The buyer expects interested suppliers to complete a questionnaire to help establish the potential requirement and obtain a market view. Responses are to be submitted through the eTendersNI secure messaging area for Call for Tender reference 6700182, with the buyer requiring completed questionnaires by 3pm on 5 October 2026. The buyer anticipates a single requirement rather than multiple lots. The indicative contract period is 1 June 2027 to 31 May 2029. The estimated value is £5,940,000 excluding VAT, or £7,128,000 including VAT. Any future tendering exercise remains subject to the outcome of this engagement and is not committed at this stage.

This engagement will suit manufacturers, authorised distributors and specialist healthcare suppliers able to provide sphygmomanometers and blood-pressure cuffs that work with electronic monitoring devices. It is relevant to businesses with established medical-equipment supply chains, product compatibility knowledge and the capacity to support requirements across HSCNI Trusts. Suppliers can use the questionnaire stage to explain available product ranges, technical characteristics, compatibility arrangements, supply capability and any factors affecting delivery or future contracting. The scale and multi-year nature of the anticipated requirement may suit organisations with reliable stock, distribution and account-management capability rather than occasional resellers. The buyer is seeking market views before defining the eventual specification, so suppliers with practical experience of blood-pressure monitoring equipment are well placed to contribute to the requirement’s development.
