Summary of the contracting process

Swansea Bay University Health Board commissioned life-extending upgrades to three existing Philips imaging rooms at Morriston Hospital: a catheterisation laboratory and two radiology interventional rooms. The work uses Philips Technology Maximiser Plus Allura upgrades to keep the existing imaging systems in service beyond their forthcoming end-of-life and support position, avoiding full system replacement. This is a specialist medical imaging equipment upgrade requirement, rather than a purchase of replacement systems. Delivery is at Morriston Hospital in Swansea. NHS Wales acted as the procuring entity for the Health Board.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Philips Electronics UK Limited on 22 October 2026. The award value is £80,100 excluding VAT (£96,120 including VAT). The contract period runs from 5 November 2026 to 27 October 2027. There was one lot, covering the upgrades to the three existing imaging rooms. The Health Board used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The published procurement details do not set out evaluation criteria: the supplier was selected without a competitive evaluation. The contract is for upgrades to existing Philips equipment, rather than a general imaging equipment supply.

For suppliers tracking future requirements from Swansea Bay University Health Board, this award shows demand for extending the life of installed Philips imaging equipment at Morriston Hospital instead of replacing whole systems. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need specialist knowledge of Philips Allura imaging systems and the capability to provide compatible Technology Maximiser Plus upgrades for both catheterisation laboratory and radiology interventional rooms. The work calls for supporting existing clinical imaging assets beyond their expected end-of-life and support position, so relevant installed-system experience and the ability to deliver upgrades across several rooms would be important. The award went to the equipment manufacturer’s UK company through a direct, non-competitive route; suppliers should factor that route into their assessment of this buyer’s requirement.
