## Summary

Royal Berkshire NHS Foundation Trust intends to procure maintenance of its ophthalmology equipment: six DRI OCT Triton Plus retinal OCTs, one 3D OCT-2000 3D scanner, one LM-8C lensmeter and one KR 8900 automated ophthalmic refractometer. The service is intended to keep these medical devices maintained and is expected to include IT and integration support. The Trust prefers fully comprehensive cover and the use of original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts. This is a medical equipment maintenance service for a healthcare provider, rather than a purchase of new devices. The equipment is associated with the Trust in Reading, Berkshire; the planned delivery location is in Berkshire.

The procurement is at the planning stage: the Trust has set out its intention to buy and is undertaking preliminary market engagement, not inviting tenders. It expects a multi-year service contract, with a planned term from 1 February 2027 to 31 January 2030 and an option that could extend the period to 31 January 2032. The estimated value is £49,000 excluding VAT (£58,800 including VAT). The Trust has not yet stated its expected procurement procedure or evaluation criteria. Suppliers interested in the planned requirement are asked to register by email and then complete a questionnaire to confirm interest; the stated registration deadline is 4 November 2026. A future notice is anticipated on 16 November 2026.

The requirement is suited to suppliers with proven capability in servicing Topcon ophthalmology equipment, particularly retinal OCT systems, 3D ophthalmic scanners, lensmeters and automated refractometers. Providers able to maintain the listed mix of six OCT units and three other devices, and support their integration with IT systems, are likely to be well placed. The Trust expresses a preference for fully comprehensive maintenance cover and OEM parts, so suppliers able to offer both should be a strong fit. The planned work is a multi-year service engagement, making it relevant to firms with capacity for continuing equipment support rather than one-off repair alone. The Trust has indicated that SMEs are suitable for this requirement. Its stated priorities are equipment maintenance, integration support and OEM components.
