Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Shared Business Services (NHS SBS) has concluded the award stage of a procurement process titled "NHS SBS BUILDING SAFETY AND FIRE COMPLIANCE FRAMEWORK," under the health and safety services category. The framework is intended for use across the United Kingdom, with a total contract value of £200 million. This open procedure aims to provide building safety and fire compliance services, covering various specialised sectors such as fire safety, asbestos management, lift installation, and water treatment. The procurement process commenced with the tender period ending on 26th July 2024, and the contract is active from 17th February 2025 to 16th February 2029. The framework is structured to support SMEs, though it is also accessible to larger firms.

This procurement presents a significant market entry for businesses specialised in safety compliance and related services. SMEs with expertise in passive and active fire safety, asbestos management and removal, PAT testing, and other compliance services could greatly benefit as suppliers within this framework. The opportunities also include partnerships for lift maintenance and installations, as well as legionella and water treatment services, making it suitable for both niche specialists and larger integrated service providers. The NHS SBS's emphasis on sustainability and social value also opens avenues for businesses that prioritize these elements in their operations to gain a competitive edge in the tendering process.
