Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, based in Worthing, involves the provision of Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) services, focusing on electrical testing. This initiative falls under the 'services' industry category, with a start date for the contract beginning on 12th July 2026 and concluding on 11th July 2028. The procurement stage has reached the 'Award' phase as of mid-May 2026, with PHS Compliance Limited being awarded the contract. This procurement follows a selective method via a call-off from a framework agreement, aligning with the classification code 71314100 for electrical services.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses in the electrical testing services sector, especially those skilled in PAT.
