Summary of the contracting process

Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board, through NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership, bought specialist hospital bed systems and accessories for Prince Charles Hospital in Merthyr Tydfil. The supply covers Compella CLRT and Progressa Pulmonary beds, together with associated mattresses and accessories. These beds support patients requiring advanced therapeutic and pulmonary care, with functions intended to assist mobilisation and respiratory therapy and to prevent pressure injuries. This is a hospital equipment supply (CPV 33192120), rather than a works or service contract. The purchasing requirement is specific to specialist clinical beds and supporting equipment for this hospital.

The procurement is complete and a contract has been awarded to Hill-Rom Limited. The contract was signed on 8 October 2026, with a value of £129,358.40. The contract period is not stated in the available process details. The Health Board made a call-off under NHS Shared Business Services Framework Agreement SBS10015, using a limited procedure without a prior call for competition; the framework had been established through a compliant competitive process. The evaluation criterion was price. The requirement was arranged as one lot, which is recorded as cancelled, although the award and contract are active; the award is reported as made for the hospital bed supply. One bid was recorded for the lot.

This award shows demand from Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board for specialist beds supporting respiratory and therapeutic care, including patient mobilisation and pressure injury prevention, as well as compatible mattresses and accessories. Suppliers seeking to compete for a similar requirement would need to demonstrate that their equipment supports these clinical uses and can be supplied as an integrated system for a hospital setting. The buyer used the NHS SBS acute and community health and social care equipment framework, so familiarity with supplying through that framework route would be commercially relevant. The recorded evaluation was price-led, making competitive pricing alongside a credible specialist product range important. The single bid recorded indicates limited participation in this competition, but does not establish why.
