A flexible, bespoke service tailored to your exact requirements

We understand that one size doesn’t fit all, which is why our approach is never prescriptive. We offer tailored maintenance solutions with a wide range of asset management options for single or multiple technologies.

Enhance your existing teams with a fully bespoke outsourced maintenance service contract that works for you.

We offer a comprehensive asset management service that includes full lifecycle management of your technologies, including asset tracking (RFiD), availability and replacement planning, performance management, maintenance, user training, decommissioning and disposal.

Acceptance testing is the only suitable way to guarantee the safe introduction of a new device in any health or social care facility. Our acceptance testing service includes the technical, administrative and performance-related procedures required to comply with relevant local and national regulations, including measuring initial values and parameters for electrical safety and subsequent equipment monitoring.

We offer a fully bespoke professional maintenance service across a wide range of manufacturers and models via flexible service contracts. Enhance your team’s capability with performance verification tests, planned preventative and reactive maintenance, back-to-base repair support, fleet management solutions or reliability/risk-based maintenance.

Promote current best-practice in medical technology management across your organisation and ensure compliance with the support of our expert team. We offer CQC and MHRA compliance, KPI reporting and benchmarking, auditing and health checks, governance reviews, consultancy and end-user training.

We offer bespoke device training opportunities for clinical end users across all biomedical modalities, including compliance and governance training, training needs analysis (TNA) and training delivery.

We offer CPD-accredited training for your in-house clinical engineers and hospital technicians, enabling them to provide first-line support for biomedical equipment, including anaesthesia, physiological monitoring and therapeutic devices.

We partner with Paragon ID to provide a range of RFID/RTLS solutions to improve the visibility and accessibility of equipment, maintenance risks and compliance to maintenance.

We apply standardised procedures to evaluate and adjust the expected lifecycle of your medical devices. If your biomedical technology is no longer fit for purpose, we can handle the disposal or resale process in accordance with WEEE regulations.
