Summary of the contracting process

The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust is buying radio frequency ablation catheter consumables for use in its healthcare services. This is a medical consumables supply requirement, rather than a works or service contract. The procurement covers one lot for the catheters; the available description does not identify models, quantities or clinical specifications. The buying organisation is the NHS Trust serving Shrewsbury and Telford. The procurement data does not identify a delivery site, so the location of supply cannot be narrowed beyond the Trust’s area.

The Trust invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The process reached tender, meaning suppliers were invited to bid. The submission deadline set by the buyer was 5 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The one-lot contract was scheduled to run from 1 January to 31 December 2027. Its estimated value is £83,625 excluding VAT, or £100,350 including VAT. The stated award basis is best value for money. To participate, suppliers were required to complete the request-for-quotation documentation. Electronic submission was permitted through the buyer’s tendering portal. The procurement was not described as cancelled or withdrawn.

This opportunity is suited to suppliers able to provide radio frequency ablation catheters as medical consumables and to meet the requirements set out in the request-for-quotation documentation. Medical device manufacturers, specialist distributors and suppliers with established access to catheter products may find the product category relevant. The single-lot structure is a supply requirement for one hospital trust, rather than a multi-site or multi-lot programme. A prospective bidder should be able to complete the buyer’s quotation paperwork and submit an offer electronically. The stated evaluation basis gives importance to value for money; suppliers should therefore be prepared to present a commercially competitive offer. The published description does not define specific technical standards, accreditations, minimum capacity or prior experience requirements, so suitability depends on whether a supplier can meet the detailed requirements in the quotation documents.
