## Summary

The Belfast Health and Social Care Trust has completed a procurement process titled "EDI-RVH - Radiology - BCH & Mater PACS Storage Support & Maintenance" within the health and social work services industry category. This procurement, which was initiated through a limited method without prior publication, involved a contract awarded to Philips UK & Ireland for a value of £56,400, signed on 3rd September 2021. The delivery location specified is within the Belfast Health & Social Care Trust area, and the procurement rationale centred around the exclusive rights held by Philips Healthcare over critical maintenance services, preventing other competition.

This contract presents opportunities for businesses in the healthcare services industry, particularly those that could offer complementary services or support to the existing systems managed by Philips UK & Ireland. Vendors with expertise in healthcare technology, maintenance, and support services are well-suited to explore partnerships or future contracts that may arise as the Belfast Health and Social Care Trust looks to enhance its service delivery capabilities without the need for disruptive changes to its current system.

### Procurement Information

No other reasonable alternative exists for this procurement as Phillips Healthcare have exclusive rights over the maintenance, updates and licences for this system which is critical to patient care and service delivery. The replacement of which would require infrastructure, ICT and extensive validation work that would result in significant disruption and disproportionate technical difficulties that would impact on the Trusts ability to deliver services. The absence of competition is not a result of the artificial narrowing of the parameters of the procurement. This system is within scope of the NIPAC procurement.
