## Summary

The procurement process conducted by Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust involves the acquisition of four Airvo Respiratory Unit Devices. The contract, titled "SFT Airvo Respiratory Unit Device," falls under the medical equipment industry category, with a specific focus on the Trust's Respiratory Department. The contract was awarded as a direct purchase from Fisher and Paykel Healthcare Limited, a supplier located in Berkshire, UK. The procurement, which was necessitated by an increase in respiratory cases, was funded through charity contributions amounting to £14,256. The procurement method was direct due to the unavailability of the full product range on NHSSC, and it was executed without competition as it fell below the specified threshold. The contract became active on 9th March 2026 and will conclude on 9th March 2027, covering key locations such as Laverstock, Sarum, and Intensive Care Units at the hospital.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those involved in the medical equipment manufacturing and supply sectors. Companies specializing in healthcare technology, respiratory devices, and NHS supply chain solutions can find growth potential by targeting such contracts. The direct award method indicates opportunities for businesses capable of providing niche, high-demand medical devices that may not be broadly available through larger supply frameworks. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find this environment particularly advantageous, given the Trust's openness to working directly with suppliers like Fisher and Paykel Healthcare Limited, which exemplifies a successful SME in this context.

## Notice

Procurement of 4 Airvo Units for SFT's Respiratory Department. Purchased by Charity funding (PS14,256). One-off purchase as a Direct Award to Fisher & Paykel Healthcare Limited. It has been identified that there has been an increase in patients presenting to the Salisbury District Hospital NHS Foundation Trust with Respiratory illnesses. This has led to a demand on their fleet of Airvo 2 units beyond capacity. In order to remedy this they purchased an additional four units which will be sited in Laverstock, Sarum and ICU. The Airvo 2 units are the Trust standard for this device and they have 13. The Department have looked to purchase the Airvo 2 units through NHSSC, but this has not been possible as the full product range isn't provided on NHSSC, so they are therefore we proceeding with the manufacturer directly. This was a charity purchase with ongoing revenue costs supported via MDMS and the Clinical wards.
