## Summary

Dorset County Hospital NHS Foundation Trust recently completed a procurement process for the purchase of an operating chair under the classification of operating tables, with a contract value of £29,990. The procurement was carried out through a selective process, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender period concluded on 6th July 2022, while the contract itself commenced on 7th July 2022 and runs until 6th July 2023. This procurement took place in Dorchester, England, and was primarily categorised under goods.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) to expand their market presence by participating in NHS contracts. Businesses specialising in medical equipment manufacturing or supply, particularly those that can meet the quality standards required for operating theatre furniture, will be well-suited to compete for similar contracts in the future. Engaging in NHS procurement processes can lead to long-term partnerships and a steady growth trajectory within the healthcare sector.
