Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Hertfordshire Hospitals NHS Trust procured replacement boilers for H Block, including boiler installation works. The work is at the Trust’s site in Watford, WD18 0HB. The requirement was managed by the Trust and purchased through the Government Commercial Agency’s Low Value Purchase System framework. This is a focused building-services requirement for suppliers able to replace boilers in a hospital block. The published scope identifies boiler replacement and installation, rather than a wider hospital refurbishment or general maintenance programme.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Maracom Limited on 25 September 2026. The award value was £84,000, within an estimated procurement range of £81,000 to £84,000. The contract period runs from 30 September to 30 November 2026. The Trust used a direct award call-off from the GCA LVPS framework, rather than a new open competition. The tender response deadline was 24 September 2026 at noon. The process is recorded as a works procurement, and suitability was marked as not intended for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. No separate evaluation criteria or lots are recorded.

For suppliers that did not win, this award shows that West Hertfordshire Hospitals NHS Trust buys targeted boiler replacement and installation work through the GCA LVPS framework. To compete credibly for a similar requirement, a supplier would need to be eligible for the relevant framework route and demonstrate the ability to replace boilers in a hospital building. The procurement’s short, defined scope points to a specialist building-services contractor with the resources to carry out the installation within a tightly bounded project. Maracom Limited, the selected supplier, is recorded as an SME, although the procurement was marked as unsuitable for SMEs. Companies should therefore assess framework eligibility and the Trust’s stated suitability position as well as their boiler-installation capability when considering similar work from this buyer.
