Summary of the contracting process

Northumbria Healthcare Facilities Management Ltd procured the supply, installation and maintenance of a Central Core Coffee Station for its operations in Newcastle upon Tyne. The purchase is classified as goods and concerns electric coffee makers (CPV 39711310). The requirement covers more than supplying equipment: the appointed business is responsible for installing the coffee station and maintaining it throughout the service period. The buying organisation is Northumbria Healthcare Facilities Management Ltd, based at Silver Fox Way, Newcastle upon Tyne. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to specialist coffee equipment suppliers, vending businesses, catering equipment providers and maintenance contractors with the ability to deliver an installed and supported coffee service for a healthcare facilities management customer.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Northumbria Healthcare Facilities Management Ltd used a selective call-off from the NHSSBS Design, Furniture & Appliances framework (SBS10246). The contract was awarded to Canny Local Vending Co Ltd on 26 June 2026 for £22,754 including the stated award value. The contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2031. The tender had a minimum estimated value of £18,374 and an estimated value of £22,754. The original requirement allowed two optional 12-month extensions, covering the period from 2029 to 2031. The selected supplier is recorded as an SME. The process therefore demonstrates a framework-based route for buying an installed and maintained coffee station rather than an open standalone tender.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award provides a clear example of the buyer’s purchasing pattern: a healthcare facilities management organisation buying a commercial coffee station as a combined equipment, installation and maintenance service through an established framework. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need to supply suitable electric coffee-making equipment, plan and complete installation at an operational healthcare-related site, and provide dependable maintenance over a multi-year service period. Specialist vending companies, commercial catering-equipment suppliers and facilities-service providers with in-house or reliably managed installation and maintenance capability are the closest fit. SME status was accepted in this process, so scale alone was not a barrier; the key commercial proposition is the ability to provide an integrated, reliable service through the relevant framework route.
