## Summary

The procurement process led by East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust is focused on purchasing an Optos Silverstone ophthalmic imaging machine, classified under the medical equipment industry category. The procurement, located in the UKH14 region, used a limited procurement method via the NHS Supply Chain National Framework Agreement for Ophthalmology. The process involved awarding a contract without prior publication of a competition call, which was completed with an active status by 21st April 2026, with a total value of £170,490.90.

This tender represents significant growth opportunities for businesses in the medical equipment sector, particularly those with expertise and capabilities in advanced ophthalmic imaging technologies. While the procurement method was limited, it highlights the demand for specialised equipment and servicing within healthcare settings. Companies that deliver high-value, quality products under national framework agreements, like Optos Public Limited Company, which successfully secured the contract, are particularly well-positioned to compete in such tenders.
