Summary of the contracting process

The Hertfordshire Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust has successfully completed a procurement process for solar equipment at Seward Lodge, awarding the contract to SMART ELECTRONIC TECHNOLOGIES LTD. The contract, valued at £60,000, is classified under the industry category of Solar Panels and involves delivery to the South East region of the United Kingdom, specifically postal code WD7 9HQ. This procurement took place through a selective method, utilising a call-off from the CCS Low Value Purchasing System framework RM6237, with the award stage concluding on 17th February 2026. The contract period spans from 17th February to 31st March 2026.

The awarded contract offers significant business growth opportunities for suppliers specialising in solar technology. While it has already been awarded, such procurements often provide insights into future tenders in the renewable energy sector. Large enterprises might find direct competition challenging due to the procurement methods chosen, but they can focus on similar upcoming opportunities. The contract was not marked suitable for SMEs or VCSEs, highlighting a preference for established entities able to meet specific delivery and quality standards within the stipulated timeframe. Supplier SMART ELECTRONIC TECHNOLOGIES LTD stands as an example of the kind of business well-suited for contracts of this nature.
