## Summary

Somerset NHS Foundation Trust has concluded an award under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 for the provision of a relocatable MRI scanner staffed with two radiologists. This procurement, classified under the Magnetic Resonance Imaging equipment industry (CPV code 33113000), entails supplying these services at Bridgwater Hospital, located in the region UKK23. The procurement method was a direct award without competitive tendering due to a short-term need to continue an existing service. The contract is valued at £165,355 and services are scheduled from 30 May 2026 to 14 August 2026. The award was completed on 26 May 2026, with AGITO Medical AS from Denmark being the supplier under a framework agreement.

This procurement offers opportunities for businesses involved with medical imaging and radiology services, especially those capable of providing highly specialised equipment and personnel on a short-term basis. Businesses in the medical technology and healthcare service supply industries that can manage quick deployment and flexible service provisions might find this tender particularly suitable. The award process underscores an existing provider's capability to meet urgent NHS needs, leveraging framework agreements to ensure continuity of patient care, an approach that can be beneficial for similarly positioned suppliers wishing to engage in future procurements.
