## Summary

Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured maintenance services for its California Optos medical equipment. The requirement covers five units, identified by serial numbers in the procurement description, with one service period applying to a single unit and a separate period applying to the other four. The equipment is used by the Trust; the procurement data does not identify a delivery or service location beyond the buyer being based in Gloucester. The service category is repair and maintenance of medical equipment (CPV 50421000). Optos plc, based in Dunfermline, was selected to provide the service.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. The Trust used a direct award below the procurement threshold, without competition. Optos plc was awarded the contract for £23,856 excluding VAT (£28,627.20 including VAT). The contract was signed on 31 July 2026 and runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The description assigns service dates of 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027 for serial number 51362, and 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2027 for serial numbers 55434, 55779, 54155 and 55698. There is one lot. The award information does not state evaluation criteria.

This award shows a defined requirement for ongoing maintenance of five California Optos medical equipment units within an NHS hospital trust. A credible supplier for comparable work would need the technical capability and service capacity to maintain this equipment across several units and to manage differing service schedules. Optos plc, the selected supplier, is the equipment manufacturer’s company; its selection indicates the buyer procured from a supplier associated with the named equipment. The requirement is a focused medical-equipment maintenance service rather than a broader hospital maintenance contract. Suppliers with relevant Optos equipment expertise and the ability to support NHS clinical equipment would be best placed to compete if the Trust’s requirement returns to market.
