Summary of the contracting process

North Cumbria Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust has issued a contract for Planned Preventative Maintenance for Refrigeration, Air Conditioning, and Air Handling Units, including Chillers and Drug Fridges. This service contract, classified under CPV code 50730000, aims to ensure the Trust’s equipment operates safely and efficiently across the entire Cumbria region. The procurement stage is complete, with Carlisle Refrigeration Ltd being awarded the contract on 27th January 2025. Key aspects include a full maintenance service covering labour and travel costs for all repairs, and the contract considers parts as chargeable. Emergency call-outs and adherence to service level agreements (SLAs) are critical, and the wide geographical coverage of Cumbria means that service delivery must be consistent across all locations. For any appeals regarding this award, there is a stipulated standstill period as per Public Contracts Regulations 2015.

This tender offers a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in repair and maintenance services, particularly those experienced with refrigeration, air conditioning, and HVAC systems. Companies capable of providing reliable, efficient services and handling emergency call-outs over a broad geographic area will find this contract particularly suitable. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like Carlisle Refrigeration Ltd, which won the contract, demonstrate that niche specialists have strong competitive potential. Businesses looking to partner or sub-contract work within the Cumbria region might also explore collaboration opportunities to enhance service provision under similar contracts.
