## Summary

The Newcastle Upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has completed a procurement process for the supply of Powered Air Purifying Respirators (PAPR) and associated accessories. This contract, with a gross value of £41,515.98, was awarded to Draeger Safety UK Ltd. The contract commenced on 8th August 2025 and is set to conclude on 30th September 2025. The procurement was conducted as a direct award under the threshold for public authority requirements, and it falls within the goods industry category. The delivery location is within the UK, specifically in the Newcastle upon Tyne region.

This contract offers an opportunity for growth, particularly for businesses involved in the manufacturing and supply of personal protective equipment.

Large-scale suppliers with experience in fulfilling NHS contracts would be well-suited to engage in comparable procurement processes given their capacity to meet the specific demands of such tenders.
