## Summary

The Northern Lincolnshire and Goole NHS Foundation Trust initiated a procurement process titled "Mobile Isolation Units" to address the urgent need for Covid-19 infection control equipment. This procurement falls under the category of miscellaneous medical devices and products (CPV code: 33190000), with an emphasis on the purchase of hospital mobile isolation units. The procurement method used was limited, awarding contracts without the prior publication of a call for competition, due to extreme urgency. The contract, valued at £525,000, was signed on 1st January 2021, with a delivery location in the UKE13 region of the United Kingdom. The procurement stage is now complete, having awarded to Gama Healthcare Ltd, a supplier based in Watford.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the medical device sector, particularly those specialising in infection control products. Companies that manufacture or supply mobile healthcare solutions, particularly small to medium enterprises (SMEs), would find themselves well-suited to compete in future tenders of this nature. The urgent response to public health needs highlights a broader trend towards quick procurement processes during health crises, which can foster more agile market entries for innovative companies looking to grow their business within the health sector.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

Purchase of hospital mobile isolation units for Covid-19 infection control.

### Procurement Information

In accordance with the provisions set out in PPN 01/20 the award without competition complies with the requirements set out. There was a genuine reason of extreme urgency in relation to public health risks to put in place a solution for controlling rapidly rising cases of Covid-19 within the Trust hospitals by providing isolation units to control and contain infection of Covid positive patients. A planned approach by using more permanent structures was in place but this became undeliverable at a late stage due to Covid related issues in the supply chain, therefore a rapid alternative was necessary. In order to minimise health risks by acting as quickly as possible there was not enough time to comply with the usual timescales in the PCRs or run an accelerated procedure, neither was there an existing framework or dynamic purchasing system that the necessary equipment could be purchased through. The factors leading to the extreme urgency were outside of the Trust's control, practical steps had been taken in advance but rapidly rising cases required additional solutions and the impacts of Covid on the supply chain rendered original plans unworkable.
