Summary of the contracting process

Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured repair cover for 18 Medtronic FT10 generators, together with training for four engineers. This is a specialist medical-equipment maintenance and repair service, with manufacturer-specific engineering training to support the hospital’s staff in maintaining the generators. The requirement combines ongoing repair support for a defined fleet with training for the Trust’s engineers. The Trust is based in Norwich; the procurement data does not identify a separate service delivery site.

The procurement is complete and awarded to Medtronic Limited, which also signed the contract. The Trust used a direct award below the procurement threshold, without competition, for a single lot. The contract was signed on 8 October 2026 and runs from 10 October 2026 to 9 October 2028. Its value is £16,800 excluding VAT (£20,160 including VAT). The award covers repair and maintenance services for medical and surgical equipment, specifically the FT10 generator repair cover and engineer training. No evaluation criteria or scoring basis are stated in the process information.

This award shows demand for manufacturer-specific repair support for a fleet of 18 FT10 generators, coupled with the ability to train the hospital’s engineers. Suppliers seeking to compete for a comparable requirement would need demonstrable expertise in maintaining and repairing this equipment, reliable capacity to support the defined fleet, and the technical ability to deliver effective engineering training. The award went to Medtronic Limited, the equipment manufacturer named in the requirement, so familiarity with the FT10 and access to appropriate technical knowledge are commercially relevant strengths. The route used was a direct award without competition, rather than an open tender; the Trust’s purchasing history therefore indicates that a credible future competitor would need to establish a strong fit with the equipment and service need.
