Summary of the contracting process

QE Facilities Limited is buying planned preventative maintenance (PPM) for a reverse osmosis (RO) system at the Pathology Laboratory in Gateshead. The requirement is a framework call-off for maintenance of the water-treatment equipment, categorised as repair and maintenance work. The delivery location is the buyer’s facilities in Gateshead, England. The work is focused on keeping the RO system maintained rather than supplying a general waste-water treatment service.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to NHS Supply Chain. The award was made on 31 July 2026, following a selective process using a call-off from a framework agreement. The awarded value is £54,846.86. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. The stated requirement is PPM for the RO system; no further breakdown of lots or evaluation criteria is recorded in the procurement information.

For suppliers competing for a future requirement from QE Facilities Limited, this award demonstrates demand for planned maintenance of reverse osmosis equipment serving a pathology laboratory. A credible competitor would need the technical ability and service capacity to maintain an RO system reliably in a healthcare laboratory setting, with planned preventative work suited to the equipment and continuity of laboratory operations. The call-off route indicates that suppliers need access to the relevant framework to compete for this buyer’s requirement. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so businesses of that scale may be well placed if they can meet the framework route and deliver specialist maintenance in Gateshead.
