## Summary

NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services procured repair and maintenance services for beds located within Hywel Dda University Health Board. The work covered beds at Glangwili, Prince Philip, Bronglais and Withybush Hospitals, serving healthcare facilities in west Wales. It was a single requirement for maintaining hospital beds rather than supplying new equipment. The procurement was managed centrally for the NHS and concerned equipment used across multiple hospital sites. Businesses relevant to this requirement include specialist medical-bed manufacturers, authorised service providers and engineering companies with the capability to inspect, maintain and repair hospital beds in a clinical environment. The named service category is repair and maintenance services.

The procurement has reached completion and the contract was awarded to Drive DeVilbiss Healthcare Limited. The procedure was a limited award without prior publication of a competition, using the NHS Supply Chain framework reference 2021/S000-021535. The award date was 25 August 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract value is £101,261.06. There was one lot, although the published lot status is cancelled; the award and contract are recorded as active. The stated award criterion was price. One bid was received, submitted electronically, and it came from an EU bidder; no bids were recorded from small or medium-sized enterprises. The contract period is not stated.

This outcome demonstrates established NHS demand for specialist maintenance of hospital beds across several Hywel Dda sites, at a scale requiring coordinated service delivery rather than work at a single facility. The successful supplier was a large healthcare equipment business, indicating that product knowledge, dependable engineering support and the operational capacity to cover multiple hospitals are commercially relevant. A future competitor would need to show credible experience maintaining medical beds, qualified technicians, responsive fault-repair arrangements and the ability to manage work safely in active healthcare environments. Familiarity with NHS purchasing routes, particularly framework-based awards, would also be important. Because price was the stated evaluation basis, suppliers would need a cost-effective service model alongside strong technical capability.
