## Summary

Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured a mechanical Autopulse chest compression device upgrade. This is a goods requirement for medical equipment, intended for delivery in England. The scope is the supply of an upgraded mechanical chest compression device, supporting clinical emergency response and resuscitation activity. The buying organisation is based in Gloucester and the requirement relates to the Trust’s hospital services. The procurement is categorised under medical equipment and is relevant to manufacturers, authorised distributors and specialist suppliers of mechanical cardiopulmonary resuscitation equipment. Businesses offering related clinical equipment may also find the requirement relevant where they can provide the specified Autopulse upgrade as a complete supply arrangement. The selected supplier was Zoll Medical UK Limited, indicating a requirement closely aligned with the Autopulse product range and its associated supply capability.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The Trust used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract was awarded to Zoll Medical UK Limited on 4 August 2026 for £16,377.03 including the published currency of GBP. The contract runs from 4 August 2026 to 1 March 2027. The tender submission deadline was 3 August 2026 at 12:00. The published procurement value includes a minimum estimate of £16,377.03 and an upper value of £0.01, although the award value is £16,377.03. The requirement was assessed as unsuitable for SMEs and suitable for voluntary, community and social enterprises. One supplier is identified as receiving the award. The available procurement information does not set out separate lots or detailed award criteria.

For suppliers that did not win this requirement, the award indicates a focused market for mechanical chest compression equipment within an NHS hospital trust. A credible competitor would need a product offering that matches the Autopulse upgrade requirement, together with the technical knowledge to supply medical equipment for clinical use. Framework access is important because this purchase was made as a framework call-off rather than through an open standalone competition. Suppliers should therefore be able to operate through an applicable public-sector framework and meet its commercial and technical conditions. The opportunity is suited to established specialist manufacturers or authorised medical-equipment distributors with dependable NHS supply arrangements, product support and the ability to deliver and support a specific device upgrade rather than a broad catalogue of unrelated equipment.
