Summary of the contracting process

NHS Property Services Limited commissioned engineering inspection services across England, including associated insurance. The requirement covers architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services, with the stated purpose of providing engineering inspection provision for NHS property assets. It is a services procurement delivered throughout England rather than at a single named site. The arrangement combines technical inspection work with insurance provision, so relevant businesses are likely to include engineering inspection providers, firms supporting the management of built assets, and insurers or specialist suppliers able to provide both elements through the required commercial arrangement. The procurement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, while participation was not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. NHS Property Services Limited used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The estimated procurement value was £929,433, with a minimum estimated value of £546,224.97, both in GBP. The tender submission deadline was 20 July 2026 at 5pm. Zurich Insurance Company Ltd received the award on 3 August 2026 for £546,224.97. The contract runs from 3 August 2026 to 31 July 2029. The award is active, and the named supplier is responsible for the awarded requirement. This outcome records a single award and does not combine it with any other supplier or lot.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates a substantial, multi-year requirement from NHS Property Services for engineering inspection services linked with insurance, delivered across England through a framework call-off. A credible future competitor would need to show reliable engineering inspection capability covering architectural, construction and built-environment assets, alongside the capacity to arrange or provide the associated insurance element. The buyer’s acceptance of an SME supplier indicates that specialist smaller firms can be credible participants where they can meet the framework’s requirements and manage delivery at national scale. Businesses should therefore develop evidence of inspection competence, dependable service coverage, insurance expertise and the operational capacity to support NHS property assets consistently.
