## Summary

The procurement process for the "Service, Validation and weekly testing of Poka Yoke Endoscope Washers," initiated by the NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services and hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, involves Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board as the procuring entity. Located in Cardiff, the direct procurement method was employed under the Procurement Act 2023 (Section 43) due to the lack of capable suppliers able to maintain the unique equipment. The tender was awarded to S V B Engineering, based in Swansea, further ensuring the specialised maintenance needs are met. This contract, categorised under repair and maintenance services, is valued at £39,730 and runs from 8 June 2026 to 7 June 2027, reflecting a strategic decision to secure necessary services efficiently without competition.

This tender offers substantial business growth opportunities for high-scale engineering firms like S V B Engineering that specialise in niche medical equipment maintenance, particularly those with existing expertise in NHS frameworks. Businesses with capabilities in servicing specialised healthcare machinery can find pronounced prospects for gaining contracts that are similar in nature and scope, especially when demonstrated capabilities meet highly specific requirements. Furthermore, companies venturing into sustainable long-term engagements with healthcare authorities can leverage such awards as reference points for future bids, enhancing their credibility in the healthcare sector.

## Notice

NWSSP on behalf of Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board has Direct award under the Procurement Act 2023 (Section 43) for the provision of service, validation and weekly testing of Poka Yoke endoscope washers. A market engagement exercise was undertaken via the NHS Supply Chain Endoscope Maintenance framework, issuing expressions of interest to 35 suppliers. Responses received did not demonstrate the capability to maintain the existing equipment. It has therefore been determined that only the incumbent supplier is able to deliver the required services and a direct award is justified. Total contract value: PS39,730
