Summary of the contracting process

The Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust General Fund has awarded a contract extension for the provision of laundry services, valued at approximately £425,802.04. This award comes as a continuation for an additional 12 months following the original contract's expiration on 31st July 2020. The contract is classified under the CPV code for laundry supplies (39291000) and commenced on 1st August 2020, extending until 31st July 2021. The procurement method employed was a direct approach, specifically a single tender action due to the unprecedented circumstances brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, which necessitated stability in service provision.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses within the laundry and linen management industry, particularly those able to provide high-quality services and comply with stringent regulatory requirements. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) may find this extension an ideal entry point to demonstrate their capabilities and secure a footing for future contracts, especially as the future tendering process is anticipated during this extension period.

Notice Title

Provision of Laundry Services extension of Contract for a further period of 12 months

Notice Description

The contract maintains a quality and compliant service to ensure clean, fresh, suitable laundry to sites. The current contract expired on 31st July 2020. The market testing in early 2020 also confirmed a limited amount of suppliers in the market. As a result of the COVID 19 crisis there was a need for stability and responsiveness in this particular service. A decision was made for the incumbent supplier to continue managing the laundry service for one additional year. This action is permitted under the Procurement Policy Note (PPN 01/20). It is intended that during this extension period the work will be tendered.
