## Summary

Hywel Dda University Health Board, located in Camarthen, UK, has completed a public procurement process concerning the maintenance of the Stellaris Anterior Elite and Stellaris PC Elite with Laser devices. The procurement falls under the industry category of repair and maintenance services, designated by the CPV code 50000000. This procurement was conducted through a direct award method, below threshold and without competition, to the supplier, Bausch and Lomb UK, to ensure specialist and compliant servicing. The procurement process, managed by NHS Wales Shared Service Partnership on behalf of Hywel Dda University Health Board, leads to a pending award valued at £51,030.00, with the contract period set to commence on 15th April 2026 and conclude on 14th April 2029.

For SMEs interested in expanding their services in the healthcare maintenance sector, this procurement highlights opportunities in directly providing specialised equipment servicing. Given the specialist nature of the equipment maintenance, businesses with trained and experienced engineers capable of supporting high-quality patient care are well-suited to compete in similar future tenders. The direct award indicates the importance of developing niche expertise and strong relationships with healthcare authorities to secure direct business opportunities without the need for competitive bidding.

## Notice

Hywel Dda University Health Board previously purchased the Stellaris Anterior Elite and Stellaris PC Elite with Laser, both of which included a warranty that is now approaching expiry. To ensure these devices continue to operate safely and effectively, a fully comprehensive service contract is required. Recent market research confirms that there are no suitable frameworks available that would allow a compliant award. Given the specialist nature of the equipment, it is essential that servicing and maintenance are carried out by appropriately trained and experienced engineers to support the continued delivery of high-quality patient care. Therefore, a direct award to the original equipment manufacturer, Bausch and Lomb UK, is necessary.
