## Summary

Halton Borough Council procured goods for use in care homes: specialist furniture, medical equipment and related medical supplies. The requirement is centred on supplying physical products rather than providing care, clinical services or construction. The medical equipment element is classified under CPV 33100000. The buying organisation is Halton Borough Council, based in Widnes, and the goods are intended for delivery to care homes within the council’s area. This is a single, council-wide requirement covering the stated furniture, equipment and supplies. It is relevant to manufacturers, distributors and specialist healthcare-product suppliers able to provide care-home furniture alongside medical equipment and consumables or other associated supplies.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. One lot was awarded to NEWLYN Healthcare. The award was active and the contract was signed on 5 August 2026, with an awarded gross value of £108,000. The contract runs from 5 August 2026 to 4 August 2027. NEWLYN Healthcare is the selected supplier for the medical equipment requirement and associated goods under the care-home supplies contract. The published outcome records the route as a non-competitive direct award, rather than an open tender. The award concerns goods, with delivery linked to care homes served by Halton Borough Council.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement from Halton Borough Council for specialist care-home furniture, medical equipment and medical supplies, delivered through a relatively focused goods contract. A credible future competitor would need dependable access to the relevant product ranges, the ability to supply both equipment and care-home furniture where required, and reliable distribution to care homes in the council’s area. Product knowledge, consistent stock availability, safe and accurate fulfilment, and the capacity to manage public-sector ordering would strengthen a supplier’s position. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that the requirement can be handled by a smaller specialist business rather than only a large national contractor. Suppliers should monitor this buyer’s continuing need for these product categories.
