## Summary

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde procured telecommunications services to maintain its existing Multitone paging infrastructure. The requirement covered the NHS board’s established paging equipment and supporting infrastructure rather than a new installation or wider communications service. Delivery was associated with NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde’s services in the Glasgow area. The buyer is NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde, a public healthcare organisation, with procurement managed through its Procurement Department at Glasgow Royal Infirmary. The named supplier is Multitone Electronics Plc, the manufacturer or incumbent specialist associated with the existing Multitone system. The requirement is therefore most relevant to businesses providing maintenance, technical support and continuity services for installed paging or comparable healthcare communications infrastructure, particularly where compatibility with an existing proprietary system is central to delivery.

The procurement has been completed and the contract is active. NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde used a limited procedure without prior publication of a competition, relying on technical reasons and the stated absence of competition because the services could be provided only by a particular economic operator. The requirement was described as a 12-month contract. Multitone Electronics Plc was selected, with one bid received; the bid was electronic and came from a non-EU supplier, while no SME bid was recorded. Evaluation was based on price. The contract was signed on 19 August 2026 and has a value of £236,688.58. The buyer said it would review its infrastructure during the 12-month period, with the stated aim of avoiding further awards without a competitive call.

This award indicates sustained demand from NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde for specialist maintenance of an installed paging estate, at a level requiring a dedicated technical provider rather than a general telecommunications contractor. A credible competitor for any future requirement would need demonstrable expertise in maintaining existing paging infrastructure, diagnosing faults, supporting operational continuity and working safely in healthcare environments. Compatibility with Multitone systems, access to suitable technical knowledge and the ability to maintain service across the NHS board’s estate would be important commercial strengths. The single-bid outcome and the buyer’s reliance on technical exclusivity show that incumbent-system knowledge and evidence of being able to support proprietary infrastructure may be decisive. Suppliers with adjacent healthcare communications capability would need to show how they can provide equivalent technical continuity without disrupting existing services.
