Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, has completed the procurement stage for the installation of a Simulation Suite at Carmarthen Hwb. This contract, titled "Simulation Suite within Carmarthen Hwb," falls under the healthcare industry category and aims to enhance clinical education capabilities in the Carmarthenshire region of the UK. The contract involves purchasing Sim Capture Pro, a clinical simulation platform, along with five years of software licensing and training. This direct award was facilitated through the NHS Supply Chain's Simulation Devices and Services Framework Agreement. The contract was signed on February 27, 2026, with a total value of £137,877.77.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses that specialise in healthcare technology and educational simulation systems. Suppliers who can provide innovative solution packages that include analytics, debriefing capabilities, and competence tracking documentation are well-suited to compete for similar contracts. Large-scale enterprises, particularly those experienced in delivering complex simulation equipment, can benefit from targeting opportunities in this sector to expand their influence in healthcare services. The procurement method was limited and absent of a prior call for competition, indicating scope for direct awards through established frameworks, principally benefiting businesses already operating within those agreements.
