## Summary

The Belfast Health and Social Care Trust has completed a procurement process for the internal re-design of the pneumatic chute sample delivery system within the Kelvin Building laboratories at the Royal Hospital Site. This service-focused procurement was initiated as a limited tender due to the specialised nature of the work, which is deemed critical for patient care. The contract, valued at £121,825 and signed on 8 December 2021, underwent an award process without prior publication of a call for competition, reflecting the technical necessity of the supplier, Phil-Tec Ltd, who holds exclusive franchise rights for the system maintenance across Ireland.

This procurement presents a significant opportunity for businesses operating within health and social work services, particularly those with capabilities in highly specialised systems and healthcare infrastructure. Firms that could effectively compete in similar tenders would include those specialising in the installation and maintenance of medical equipment, especially businesses with expertise in pneumatic delivery systems, as well as contractors capable of navigating complex healthcare environments while minimising disruption to clinical services.

### Procurement Information

No other reasonable alternative exists for this procurement, as this equipment that is critical to patient care, is highly complex and is an integral part of a larger Pneumatic tube system. The replacement of which would require extensive structural works and result in significant disruption to the clinical and laboratory areas and the Trusts ability to deliver services. Phil-Tec Ireland Ltd have the sole franchise to support, install or maintain this system across Ireland therefore no other economic operator can compete for this procurement. The absence of competition is not a result of the artificial narrowing of the parameters of the procurement.
