Summary of the contracting process

Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board bought three stainless-steel powered mortuary trolleys for its pathology services. The equipment supports mortuary operations at Ysbyty Gwynedd in Bangor, Wrexham Maelor Hospital in Wrexham and Ysbyty Glan Clwyd in Bodelwyddan. This is a specialist medical equipment supply requirement, rather than a general pathology or laboratory services contract. The buyer is the health board responsible for these hospitals in North Wales. The requirement was placed as one package covering all three sites, so suppliers needed to provide the trolley equipment across the health board’s hospital network.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to LEEC Ltd. The health board used a limited call-off from the NHS Supply Chain Laboratory Diagnostics, Point of Care Testing and Pathology Managed Services arrangement, without publishing a competition notice. The single lot’s stated evaluation basis was price. The award is active, and the contract is also active. The contract was signed on 9 October 2026 and is valued at £40,298.40. One bid was recorded for the lot. No separate award date or contract duration is recorded in the published process information.

This award demonstrates demand from Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board for powered stainless-steel mortuary trolleys serving pathology facilities across multiple North Wales hospitals. Suppliers competing for a similar requirement would need to offer appropriate mortuary equipment, supply three sites as a coordinated package and meet the operational needs of hospital mortuary services. The successful route was a call-off from an NHS Supply Chain arrangement, so credible suppliers would need to be positioned to supply through that route. Price was the stated basis for evaluating the lot, making competitive pricing central to the offer. The single recorded bid indicates that only one supplier submitted, but does not establish why or whether other suppliers were eligible.
