Summary of the contracting process

Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust procured a Liko Golvo 9000 hoist with a lithium battery for use at Charlton Lane and Wotton Lawn. This is a medical equipment supply requirement, covering a patient lifting hoist rather than construction, facilities management or clinical staffing services. The procurement falls under CPV 33100000, medical equipment. The buyer is an NHS Foundation Trust serving healthcare facilities in Gloucestershire. The named requirement is for one hoist model with its specified lithium battery configuration, intended for the two healthcare locations identified by the Trust. Businesses relevant to this requirement are manufacturers, authorised distributors and specialist suppliers of patient handling and moving equipment.

The procurement is complete and was awarded directly without competition under the below-threshold route. Medaco Ltd was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 18 September 2026 and awarded on 22 September 2026, for a one-year period from 22 September 2026 to 21 September 2027. Its value is £16,063.21 excluding VAT, or £19,275.85 including VAT. There was one completed lot covering the hoist and battery supply. The award is active and the contract is active. Evaluation was not conducted through a competitive tender: the stated method was direct award, described as below threshold without competition. The process therefore records a completed purchase rather than an invitation for new bids.

For suppliers that did not win this purchase, the award is evidence that Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust buys specialist patient handling equipment for named healthcare sites. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to supply the Liko Golvo 9000 hoist with lithium battery, or demonstrate an equivalent ability to meet a precisely specified hoist requirement, and support delivery to healthcare premises. The selected supplier was an SME, showing that this scale of NHS equipment purchase is not confined to large national businesses. Specialist distributors and manufacturers with established access to Liko equipment, reliable healthcare-sector fulfilment and the capacity to serve more than one Trust location are the most directly relevant competitors when this type of need next reaches the market.
