UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust bought one ultrasound machine for Main Theatre 08. This is a medical imaging equipment supply requirement, specifically an ultrasound scanner (CPV 33112300). Delivery is in Cambridge, at the Trust’s site. The requirement is for a single machine rather than a wider equipment programme, and the stated use is in a main operating theatre. The Trust is the buying organisation, while the selected supplier is Fujifilm Sonosite Ltd. This procurement concerns the supply of the scanner; the published scope does not describe installation, servicing, training or other associated work.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. It was handled as a below-threshold procurement, with the specific procedure recorded as unknown. There was one lot, covering the single ultrasound machine. Fujifilm Sonosite Ltd was awarded the contract; it was signed on 22 October 2026 and runs from 23 October 2026 to 22 January 2027. The contract value is £25,930 excluding VAT (£31,116 including VAT). The process records the award and contract outcome, but does not provide an evaluation basis or detailed eligibility conditions. The machine is intended for Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust’s Main Theatre 08 in Cambridge.

For suppliers of medical ultrasound equipment, this award demonstrates demand from Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for a single scanner dedicated to use in a main operating theatre. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to supply ultrasound equipment suitable for theatre use and meet the Trust’s operational and technical requirements. The award went to Fujifilm Sonosite Ltd, a large supplier, showing that an established equipment provider competed successfully for this purchase. The stated requirement is tightly focused on one machine, so capability in supplying the relevant imaging equipment is central; the procurement does not establish a need for a broader imaging system, installation, maintenance or training service.
