Summary of the contracting process

Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust bought original-equipment-manufacturer (OEM) batteries and a maintenance kit for medical and surgical equipment. The requirement is classified as repair and maintenance services for medical and surgical equipment, covering the purchase and associated support needed for equipment at the Trust’s Basildon site. The named buying organisation is Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust, an NHS public authority. The work is therefore relevant to suppliers of medical equipment parts, OEM batteries, maintenance kits and related maintenance services, particularly those able to support hospital equipment in Basildon. The procurement title identifies Getinge equipment or products as the subject of the requirement, indicating a need for compatibility with the specified OEM supply and maintenance arrangements.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, for one completed lot. Getinge Limited was selected as the supplier, and the contract was signed on 14 September 2026. The contract runs from 14 September 2026 to 1 December 2026. Its value is £17,626 excluding VAT and £21,151.20 including VAT. The requirement was treated as a services procurement for repair and maintenance of medical and surgical equipment. The outcome reflects a direct, non-competitive route rather than an open tender, with Getinge appointed for the OEM batteries and maintenance kit requirement.

For competing suppliers, this award is evidence that the Trust purchases OEM batteries and maintenance kits for medical and surgical equipment at its Basildon site. Relevant businesses are medical equipment manufacturers, authorised distributors and specialist maintenance providers with dependable access to compatible Getinge OEM parts. Credibility for a future requirement would depend on demonstrating knowledge of the specified equipment, the ability to supply genuine batteries and maintenance kits, and the technical capability to support hospital medical and surgical equipment safely. Suppliers should also be able to manage a focused NHS requirement and provide responsive maintenance-related support. The awarded supplier’s position shows the commercial importance of OEM compatibility and equipment-specific expertise on this type of purchase.
