UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

North East London NHS Foundation Trust is buying 11 new mobile patient hoists for inpatient use. The hoists must enable transfers between beds, chairs and wheelchairs, and have a base that can fit beneath low beds. Each hoist must have a powered lifting system and a safe working load of at least 130 kg. The equipment is to be delivered to Orsett Hospital in Grays, Essex; quotations must include delivery to that site. This is a supply requirement for healthcare lifting equipment, rather than a request for installation or ongoing services.

The Trust invited suppliers to submit quotations through an open competition. The process reached the tender stage, with quotations due by 12:00 on 2 November 2026 and enquiries due by 12:00 on 1 November 2026. Quotations are submitted through the MultiQuote supplier portal. The contract period runs from 3 November to 3 December 2026. The estimated value is £40,000 excluding VAT (£50,000 including VAT). There is one lot. Evaluation considers both quality and price, including how well the hoists meet the requirement, their suitability for inpatient use, durability and ease of use. Delivery is included in the total price, and the contract is to go to the supplier offering the best overall value.

This requirement is suited to suppliers able to provide mobile, powered patient hoists designed for inpatient settings. Products need to support transfers between beds, chairs and wheelchairs, fit beneath low beds and meet the minimum safe working load. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate the equipment’s suitability for inpatient use, durability and ease of operation, since these are assessed alongside price. The supplier must also be able to arrange delivery to Orsett Hospital and include its full cost in the quotation. Manufacturers, healthcare equipment distributors and suppliers with access to compliant hoists and reliable delivery arrangements are the most directly relevant businesses.
