Summary of the contracting process

This procurement process focuses on supplying medical thermometers and accessories under the title "Thermometry". Managed by NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership - Procurement Services, the procurement authority, in this case, Velindre University NHS Trust, is engaging on behalf of various Welsh Health Boards. Situated in Cardiff, NHS Wales aims at enhancing healthcare through innovative procurement. Conducted using an open procedure, this contracting process has reached the award stage as of 18 February 2026. The procurement invokes a substantial contract value worth £2,941,014 GBP, highlighting its significant impact in the goods category, specifically within the health industry and to be delivered to the UKL region. Notably, this process began back in late 2024 with electronic submissions closing on 20 November 2024, a testament to the extensive planning involved.

Such a procurement epitomises ample opportunities for businesses specialising in medical devices, particularly large-scale companies with expertise in high-quality thermometer production. Given the emphasis on pricing criteria, companies offering competitive and innovative solutions are pivotal in shaping successful bids. This can bolster businesses poised to expand in the healthcare sector, tapping into consistent demand from NHS Wales and its vast network. Entities capable of electronic catalogue integrations and adhering to variant policies can significantly benefit from this engagement, establishing long-lasting associations within the NHS framework. This opportunity represents a lucrative venture for suppliers like Welch Allyn (UK) Limited, which successfully secured contracts under this process, paving the way for growth and partnership in healthcare procurement.
