Summary of the contracting process

Birmingham Women's and Children's NHS Foundation Trust purchased a Revvity Panthera-Puncher 9 medical equipment system and associated items. The requirement is for goods used in healthcare, centred on the Panthera-Puncher 9 equipment supplied by Revvity. The buying organisation is Birmingham Women's and Children's NHS Foundation Trust, with University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust acting as the procuring entity through the Birmingham and Solihull Procurement Collaborative. The equipment is for delivery and use in Birmingham. This is a single medical equipment requirement rather than a broader clinical service, maintenance contract or construction project. Businesses supplying laboratory or other specialist medical equipment, particularly those able to provide Panthera-Puncher 9 systems and compatible associated items, are the closest match to the procurement.

The procurement has been completed and awarded to Revvity. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 13 August 2026 and ran from 19 August 2026 to 18 September 2026. Its value was £73,133.28 excluding VAT and £87,759.94 including VAT. The contract is recorded as active, and the award is also active. The purchase was handled as one lot. The published outcome identifies Revvity as the supplier for the medical equipment requirement. The process was a waiver procurement, so suppliers were not evaluated through an open tender or competitive scoring exercise; the route was a below-threshold purchase without competition.

This award indicates a specific NHS requirement for Revvity Panthera-Puncher 9 equipment and associated items in Birmingham. A supplier seeking to compete when a comparable requirement returns would need to supply the named equipment or an acceptable equivalent, understand specialist medical or laboratory equipment requirements, and provide the associated items needed for the system to operate. Credibility would be strongest for the manufacturer, an authorised distributor, or a specialist medical-equipment supplier with a reliable route to source and support this type of equipment. Experience supplying NHS trusts or comparable healthcare organisations would help demonstrate familiarity with public-sector purchasing, clinical operating environments, product assurance and dependable delivery. The requirement is equipment-focused rather than a general healthcare service opportunity.
