## Summary

Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital NHS Foundation Trust procured the supply and installation of a replacement X-ray tube and associated replacement parts for its Somatom Force CT scanner. This is specialist medical-imaging equipment maintenance work, classified as repair and maintenance of X-ray equipment (CPV 50421200). The requirement was for the Trust’s scanner in Liverpool; the published delivery location is identified only as the United Kingdom.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Siemens Healthcare Limited. The Trust used a direct award below the threshold, without competition, for a single lot. The contract was signed on 2 September 2026 and runs from 3 to 4 September 2026. Its net value is £92,377 and its gross value, including tax, is £110,852.40. The award is active, as is the contract. The procurement data does not state evaluation criteria, so the basis for selecting the supplier beyond the direct-award route is not established here.

For suppliers considering similar future work for Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, this purchase demonstrates demand for specialist replacement components and installation for a Somatom Force CT scanner. Credible competitors would need to supply parts compatible with that scanner and have the technical expertise, service capability and capacity to install them safely and promptly. Siemens Healthcare Limited, a large healthcare technology supplier, was selected through a direct award without competition; this outcome indicates the buyer used a non-competitive route for this requirement, rather than comparing competing bids. Suppliers with relevant scanner-specific product knowledge and the ability to deliver the replacement and installation as a tightly scoped service would be best placed to meet a comparable need.
