## Summary

The procurement process led by NHS Grampian for the "Gen5 Mitraclip Steerable Guide Catheter" has reached the award stage, finalised on 24th March 2026. This contract focuses on the health sector, specifically targeting Aberdeen Royal Infirmary in the Aberdeen region (UKM50). The procurement method employed was limited, bypassing the usual call for competition. This decision was driven by specific clinical needs assessed by a cardiothoracic surgeon, indicating that there were no other viable options for the patients involved. The contract, valued at £56,250, was signed on 10th March 2026, following a direct award procedure due to technical reasons associated with the unique requirements of the supplies and lack of competition.

This tender provides an opportunity for large businesses in the medical supply industry, particularly those specialising in cardiovascular devices, to engage with NHS Grampian—a reputable public health entity. The limited procurement method underlines a specialised demand, making it ideal for companies that hold technological expertise in the field or unique products that meet stringent clinical assessments. Businesses that can offer innovative medical solutions in similar scenarios or sectors may find potential for growth and collaboration opportunities with the National Health Service networks in the UK. The direct award to Abbott Medical U.K. Ltd showcases how tailored services and products can penetrate highly selective procurement processes.
