Summary of the contracting process

The Christie NHS Foundation Trust procured replacement parts following service maintenance for two Masterys GP 2.0 (MGP4-AA) uninterruptible power supply units, each rated at 120 kVA. The equipment is identified by serial numbers PM14770001 and PM1468000. The requirement covered the supply of parts for these electrical power protection systems and associated repair and maintenance activity. It falls within the goods category, with the principal subject being uninterruptible power supplies and supporting maintenance of electrical machinery and associated equipment. The work was for The Christie NHS Foundation Trust, based on Wilmslow Road in Manchester, and relates to equipment used in its operational estate. The named supplier was Socomec U.K. Limited, a large UK-based specialist supplier headquartered in Cirencester.

This procurement has been completed and awarded. The contract was awarded to Socomec U.K. Limited through a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 30 June 2026 and ran from 30 June 2026 to 30 July 2026. Its value was £12,461.90 excluding VAT and £14,954.28 including VAT. The award covered one completed lot and the contract remains recorded as active. Evaluation was therefore based on a direct, non-competitive procurement route rather than a scored competition. The outcome indicates a focused purchase linked to identified equipment and post-maintenance replacement requirements, rather than a broad supply arrangement or multi-site framework. The buyer was The Christie NHS Foundation Trust.

This requirement is commercially relevant to suppliers that can identify, source and replace parts for Masterys GP 2.0 uninterruptible power supplies, particularly the MGP4-AA 120 kVA model, and support associated electrical machinery maintenance. Credible competitors would need practical expertise in UPS equipment, access to compatible or manufacturer-approved replacement parts, and the technical ability to work from equipment specifications and serial numbers. Experience of post-maintenance remedial work would be useful, as the purchase followed servicing rather than representing a standalone general equipment order. Suppliers should also understand the reliability and continuity requirements associated with critical electrical power systems in an NHS setting. Socomec’s selection signals the importance of model-specific capability and established manufacturer or specialist knowledge when this buyer next addresses comparable replacement needs.
