## Summary

Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust bought endoscopy consumable products together with a vendor-managed inventory service, through a call-off contract under the HealthTrust Europe framework for endoscopy suite goods and services. The requirement is for medical consumables and associated inventory management, with delivery in Nottingham.

The procurement is complete and Boston Scientific Limited was selected. The award was made on 28 August 2026 for £5.88 million, matching the stated maximum estimated value; the estimated minimum was £1 million. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2030. The competition was conducted as a selective framework call-off, with tenders due by 1 August 2026. The process records no separate lots or evaluation criteria.

For suppliers assessing this buyer’s future requirements, the award demonstrates demand for endoscopy consumables combined with vendor-managed inventory, rather than products alone. A credible competitor would need to supply the relevant consumables and provide an inventory-management service for an NHS hospital in Nottingham. The selected supplier was a large company, and the procurement was marked as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. Suppliers whose offer can support both product supply and managed stock provision are therefore the closest fit to this demonstrated purchasing requirement. The framework call-off route is also relevant to understanding how this buyer procured the requirement.
