The equipment comprises a ROWA 6876 robot at Glangwili Hospital and a ROWA 6916 robot at Prince Philip Hospital. The service covers maintenance and servicing of pharmacy robots used for automated medicine storage, selection and dispensing. These systems support hospital pharmacy operations by improving dispensing accuracy, stock management, operational efficiency and patient safety. The buyer is Hywel Dda University Health Board, based in Carmarthen. This is a specialist healthcare engineering and technical support requirement focused on Becton Dickinson dispensing equipment and the associated ROWA robotic systems. The procurement has been awarded following a tender process. The award is active and the contract was awarded to Becton Dickinson Dispensing UK Limited. The contract was signed on 15 June 2026 for £65,513.30 including the stated currency of GBP, with a duration of 720 days. There was one lot covering maintenance and servicing of the pharmacy robots at Glangwili Hospital and Prince Philip Hospital. The published procurement category is repair and maintenance services. The contracting authority was amended to reflect Hywel Dda University Health Board, because the change arose from circumstances it could not reasonably have foreseen. The published outcome identifies the selected supplier but does not set out award criteria or a detailed evaluation basis. This procurement indicates recurring demand from Hywel Dda University Health Board for specialist maintenance of automated pharmacy dispensing and storage equipment. Suppliers best placed for comparable future work would need demonstrable capability with ROWA pharmacy robots, including planned servicing, fault diagnosis, repair, software or controls support where relevant, and safe restoration of equipment used in hospital pharmacy operations. Credibility would be strengthened by experience supporting Becton Dickinson Dispensing systems, understanding medicine-storage and automated-dispensing environments, and the capacity to provide dependable technical response across Glangwili Hospital and Prince Philip Hospital. Healthcare-site experience, robust maintenance processes and an ability to protect dispensing accuracy, stock control, service continuity and patient safety would be important differentiators when this requirement next reaches the market. ### Lot Information Lot 1 1.
