Summary of the contracting process

Swansea Bay University Health Board bought a Lumenis MOSES Pulse 120H 50Hz 32A urology laser, a specialist medical device for urological procedures. Its stated uses include treating urinary stones by laser lithotripsy and performing Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP). The purchase replaces an end-of-life urology laser at Morriston Hospital and is a one-off capital purchase. The equipment falls within urology diagnostic and treatment devices (CPV 33125000) and is for delivery in Swansea, Wales. NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services managed the procurement on the Health Board’s behalf.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Boston Scientific Limited. The Health Board used a limited competition as a direct call-off from the NHS Supply Chain framework for Medical Lasers and Related Accessories and Services. The contract was signed on 22 September 2026 and runs from 22 September 2026 to 21 September 2027. Its recorded value is £12,822.15 excluding VAT and £113,814.72 including VAT. There was one lot, covering the urology laser purchase. The award information identifies the successful supplier and equipment, but does not set out evaluation criteria.

For suppliers of specialist urology lasers, this purchase shows demand from Swansea Bay University Health Board for replacement equipment supporting stone treatment and prostate surgery at Morriston Hospital. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to supply a suitable laser for these procedures and demonstrate that it can meet the clinical equipment need. The buyer used a call-off from an NHS Supply Chain framework rather than a standalone open tender, so experience of supplying through the relevant framework route would be commercially pertinent. This was a one-off equipment purchase, not a recurring service contract; suppliers should therefore focus on the buyer’s replacement needs and the specified urological applications rather than assume demand for broader medical devices.
