Summary of the contracting process

Tameside and Glossop Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust procured hospital linen and laundry services under the NOECPC linen and laundry service arrangement. The requirement concerns the provision and laundering of linen for healthcare use, with delivery associated with Ashton-under-Lyne, Greater Manchester. This is a service contract rather than a purchase of linen alone: suppliers need to support the continuing handling and supply of hospital textiles for the Trust. The procurement description identifies the service through the NOECPC arrangement, but does not describe individual textile types, volumes or operational sites beyond the delivery location. The buyer is the NHS foundation trust serving Tameside and Glossop.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust. The award was made on 1 September 2026, for a contract period running from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2028. The awarded value is £3,238,449.60. The tender was scheduled to close on 28 April 2026. The published tender estimate was £1,619,224.80; this differs from the awarded value. The process is described as using an “Other” method, with no further procedure detail. The procurement was identified as one linen and laundry service lot. No evaluation criteria or specific participation requirements are stated in the available process information.

The award demonstrates demand from Tameside and Glossop Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust for a substantial, multi-year hospital linen and laundry service, delivered through the NOECPC linen and laundry arrangement. The selected provider is another NHS foundation trust, indicating that a credible competitor needs to show it can organise reliable linen provision and laundering for healthcare use at institutional scale. Suppliers should be prepared to evidence the operational capacity to manage ongoing service delivery and distribution associated with Ashton-under-Lyne. The available requirement description does not set out particular accreditations, technical standards, textile specifications or service performance measures, so it does not establish specific credentials beyond the ability to deliver this hospital-focused linen and laundry service. The work is not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises.
