Summary of the contracting process

Cardiff University has completed a procurement process for the maintenance of its MAGNETOM Prisma and 7T MRI scanners. The award process, which did not include prior publication of a call for competition, was governed by Regulation 32 for technical reasons and the protection of exclusive rights. The procurement, categorised under services, was limited in nature and had a key award date of 19th February 2024. The procurement location is Cardiff, UK (region UKL), and it falls within the education industry sector.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities, particularly for suppliers capable of providing specialised maintenance services in high-end medical imaging equipment. However, due to the exclusive nature of the equipment manufactured by Siemens, the contract was awarded to Siemens Healthcare Limited, a well-suited large-scale supplier. This type of contract would typically suit businesses with a strong technical focus on specific proprietary technologies or healthcare solutions.
