UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Northumbria Healthcare Facilities Management procured a custom-made surgical implant specifically for an individual patient. This is a medical-device supply requirement rather than a general implant purchase: the implant must be made to meet the patient’s particular needs. The buying organisation is Northumbria Healthcare Facilities Management, based in North Shields. The procurement data does not identify a separate delivery location, so the stated place of the buyer is the only location connected to the requirement.

The procurement is complete: a supplier was selected and the contract is active. Northumbria Healthcare Facilities Management awarded the contract to Paragon 28 UK Ltd through a direct award without competition, below the procurement threshold. The contract was signed on 10 September 2026 and runs from 11 September to 2 October 2026. Its value is £25,000 excluding VAT (£30,000 including VAT). The purchase is recorded as one lot. No award date or evaluation criteria are recorded, and there is no stated competitive evaluation basis; the route used was a direct award without competition.

For suppliers seeking to compete when this buyer next requires a patient-specific surgical implant, the relevant capability is to design, manufacture and supply an implant tailored to an individual patient’s needs. Credibility will depend on being able to deliver a bespoke medical device that meets the clinical requirement, rather than offering only standard catalogue products. The selected supplier’s award demonstrates that Northumbria Healthcare Facilities Management has bought this requirement through a direct award without competition, so a future competitor would need to establish a clear fit with the patient-specific specification and the ability to fulfil it. This was a single, focused supply requirement, not a broad programme of implant procurement.
