Summary of the contracting process

Velindre University NHS Trust is buying specialist relocation, reinstallation and recommissioning services for its existing SPECT CT 2 diagnostic imaging system. The work supports the relocation programme to the new Velindre Cancer Centre and covers decommissioning, removal, transport, reinstallation, testing and commissioning. The purpose is to transfer the critical imaging equipment safely and return it to operational use while maintaining manufacturer compliance, system integrity and patient safety. This is specialist medical imaging equipment installation and relocation work (CPV 51400000). The equipment is being moved to the new Velindre Cancer Centre in Cardiff, Wales.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to GE Healthcare. The Trust used a direct award below the procurement threshold, without competition. The award value is £65,000 excluding VAT (£78,000 including VAT). The contract period runs from 16 November 2026 to 30 April 2027; the planned signature date was 9 November 2026. The procurement was a single lot, covering the relocation and recommissioning of the existing SPECT CT system. The stated basis for the work is safe transfer and return to operation while preserving manufacturer compliance, system integrity and patient safety. The award is recorded as pending.

For suppliers preparing for comparable specialist relocation work, this requirement shows the importance of being able to manage an entire medical imaging equipment move: decommissioning, removal, transport, reinstallation, testing and recommissioning. Credible providers need the technical capability to protect a complex diagnostic system through each stage and return it safely to clinical service. Maintaining manufacturer compliance, equipment integrity and patient safety is central to the requirement. Experience with SPECT CT systems and the ability to carry out work at a cancer centre would be directly relevant. The Trust selected GE Healthcare through a direct award without competition, so suppliers should recognise that this instance did not provide an open competitive route; the procurement nonetheless demonstrates demand for specialist relocation services tied to a hospital move.
