About the buyer

Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust runs acute and specialist hospital services across Bradford, buying through its own procurement team. Contract opportunities appear on the government's Find a Tender Service and Contracts Finder. Competed procurements have carried a net zero and social value requirement since 2022, under an NHS-wide sustainability roadmap. Suppliers are assessed against the Evergreen sustainable supplier framework. Key suppliers must hold a carbon reduction plan under PPN 006. A Head of Sustainability works alongside procurement to apply these standards across the Trust's contracts.

UK health spending has nearly quadrupled to £241.8bn in 2024/25, £20bn up on the year before. £140.6bn of that went to procurement, the biggest sector of UK public spending and the fastest-growing.

Over the past 5 years, most of Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust's contract awards have been in medical equipment and pharmaceuticals, repair and maintenance and software and information systems.
