Summary of the contracting process

University Hospitals of North Midlands NHS Trust is buying medical consumables for its low-temperature hydrogen peroxide gas sterilisation equipment. The requirement is for the supply of sterilisation products used with this equipment. The buyer is the NHS Trust, based in Stoke-on-Trent. This is a goods procurement, rather than a request for equipment, installation or sterilisation services. The products are intended to support the Trust’s use of this sterilisation method; the specified scope centres on consumables compatible with its equipment.

The buyer invited offers through an open competition under the below-threshold procedure. The enquiry deadline was 16 October 2026 at 12:00 noon, and the bid submission deadline was 30 October 2026 at 12:00 noon. The contract is scheduled to run from 9 November 2026 to 8 April 2028, with an optional 12-month extension, up to 8 April 2029. The estimated value is £45,000 excluding VAT (£54,000 including VAT). There is one lot. Evaluation is weighted 90% on cost and pricing and 10% on social value. Electronic submission was permitted through the buyer’s specified online system.

This opportunity suits suppliers able to provide consumables compatible with low-temperature hydrogen peroxide gas sterilisation equipment. Medical consumables distributors and manufacturers with relevant sterilisation-product ranges are the clearest fit. The requirement is a supply contract for a defined equipment-related consumables need, rather than a broader service or capital equipment project. Suppliers should be able to meet the Trust’s product requirements and deliver reliably throughout the contract, including any extension if exercised. Price carries the largest share of the evaluation, so competitive and clear pricing is important; social value also contributes to the assessment. The contract’s value and single-lot structure indicate a focused supply opportunity for businesses able to serve an NHS hospital buyer.
