UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Christie NHS Foundation Trust procured procedure packs for use in its operating theatres. These are medical consumables supplied as packs for surgical procedures, rather than a general theatre service or works contract. The buyer is The Christie NHS Foundation Trust, based in Manchester. The requirement relates to theatre use, but the procurement data does not identify a specific delivery site beyond the buyer’s Manchester location. The contract was structured as a single lot and covered a call-off order for the packs. This type of supply is relevant to medical consumables manufacturers, distributors and suppliers able to provide procedure packs for hospital operating theatres.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. The Christie awarded the single-lot requirement to Mediq Healthcare UK Limited through a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 5 September 2026 and runs from 6 September to 6 November 2026. Its stated value is £50,000 excluding VAT, or £60,000 including VAT. The award is for medical consumables, specifically theatre procedure packs. No separate evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements are recorded, consistent with the direct award route. The outcome shows that Mediq Healthcare UK Limited was selected for the supply; the contract is not described as cancelled or terminated.

For suppliers seeking to compete when The Christie next buys procedure packs, the relevant capability is supplying medical consumables configured for operating-theatre procedures. Credible competitors would need to demonstrate that they can source, assemble or distribute suitable packs reliably for a hospital theatre environment, and meet the buyer’s operational requirements for those supplies. The awarded contract was a focused, single-lot call-off rather than a broad healthcare supply programme, so businesses specialising in procedure packs or with a strong medical consumables distribution offer are the closest fit. The selection of a healthcare supplier indicates that established supply capability is relevant; the procurement does not set out specific accreditations, technical standards, staffing requirements or minimum capacity.
