## Summary

The East and North Hertfordshire Teaching NHS Trust has completed the awarding process for the periodic testing of washers and autoclaves. This contract pertains to the healthcare industry, specifically targeting autoclaves under the CPV classification 33191110. The contract was awarded to Supply Chain Coordination Limited through a call-off from an NHSSC framework agreement. The procurement method was selective, and the contract has a value of £50,000 GBP. The service package includes annual validation and weekly testing over a one-year period starting from 1st February 2026 and concluding on 31st January 2027, with services delivered in the South East region of the United Kingdom. Key dates include the initial award date of 14th January 2026, and the notice of award published on 12th February 2026. The procurement stage is now at the award phase.

This tender creates opportunities for businesses specialising in healthcare equipment maintenance or supply services, particularly those with expertise in autoclave testing and validation. Given the procurement method used—a call-off from a framework agreement—larger enterprises are likely better suited to compete, as the suitability for SMEs and VCSEs was not indicated. The opportunity aligns with organisations that can deliver high-standard testing services and has the potential for businesses to grow their operations by engaging with NHS Trusts in the United Kingdom, ensuring compliance with healthcare industry standards. The strategic location in the South East suggests accessibility to services could be advantageous for businesses within or near this region.
