Summary of the contracting process

NHS Highland has completed the procurement process for the contract titled "HH079-23-TW10 Grounds Maintenance including Gritting". This contract falls under the services category, specifically for grounds maintenance services, including gritting and snow clearing for Winter 2023/24. The process was managed using a limited procurement method due to a lack of acceptable responses from the competitive procedure. The contract was awarded on 18 October 2024 to Highland Groundcare Ltd, an SME based in Inverness, UKM6 region. This award ensures the maintenance of grounds and safety measures required for staff and patients during winter.

SMEs like Highland Groundcare Ltd, which secured this contract, stand to benefit from establishing trust and reliability with public organisations such as NHS Highland. This type of procurement provides a steady stream of work during critical periods, enabling companies to demonstrate expertise and reliability. Additionally, businesses focusing on winter-specific maintenance, such as gritting and snow clearing, can leverage such contracts to expand their portfolio and gain a competitive edge in the market.
