## Summary

The procurement process for the "Supply of Operating Tables" has reached the award stage, dated 23rd March 2026. The contracting authority overseeing this tender is the United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, located in Lincoln, UK. This procurement falls within the medical equipment industry, specifically focusing on operating tables. The tender was carried out using a selective procurement method, employing a call-off from the NHS Supply Chain Framework for Operating Theatres Equipment and Related Accessories and Services. The contract period spans from 31st March to 30th April 2026, with a total contract value of £71,990 GBP.

This award presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in medical equipment manufacturing and supply, particularly those providing operating tables, to enhance their growth by participating in framework agreements like the NHS Supply Chain. Companies like Hill-Rom Limited, already awarded and recognised as an SME, demonstrate that smaller enterprises can thrive in such tenders, provided they align with specific requirements of public health organisations. This process highlights the importance of strategic positioning for SMEs in niche markets, although direct suitability was not a focus in this tender.
