## Summary

Medway NHS Foundation Trust is buying ENT endoscopes for use in endoscopy suites. The procurement is for medical equipment, rather than clinical services or construction, and is described as a call-off for endoscopy-suite goods and services under the Health Trust Europe LLP framework. The equipment is to be delivered across England, with locations spanning the North East, North West, Yorkshire and Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. The requirement is presented as a single lot. It is relevant to medical-device suppliers able to provide ENT scopes for NHS endoscopy settings and support supply across a broad range of English regions.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Novus Med Part of HSL on 5 October 2026. Medway NHS Foundation Trust used a direct, below-threshold call-off from the Health Trust Europe LLP framework, without competition. The award value is £510,000 excluding VAT (£612,000 including VAT). The contract period runs from 14 October 2026 to 6 October 2027, with a possible extension of up to one year, to 6 October 2028. The buyer may also purchase additional quantities at the contracted rate. The published information identifies one lot and names the supplier, but gives no separate scoring or evaluation basis beyond the framework call-off route.

For suppliers who did not win, this award demonstrates Medway NHS Foundation Trust’s demand for ENT endoscopes for its endoscopy suites, sourced through the Health Trust Europe LLP framework. A credible competitor would need to supply suitable medical equipment for NHS clinical use and serve delivery requirements across multiple English regions. The award went to an SME, showing that the requirement was fulfilled by a smaller supplier rather than necessarily requiring the scale of a large national manufacturer. Suppliers considering similar work for this buyer should be able to meet an endoscopy-equipment requirement and operate within a framework call-off route; the process was conducted without competition, so access to the relevant framework is commercially important.
