Summary of the contracting process

Simply Serve Ltd, acting on behalf of Somerset NHS Foundation Trust, has completed the procurement process for a comprehensive Framework Agreement dedicated to planned and reactive works at multiple sites within the Somerset region. The framework, titled "Framework Agreement for the provision of planned and reactive works," encompasses services related to drainage, flooring, and electrical systems for Trust sites as well as Somerset Council locations. Awarded on 21st May 2026, the procurement was conducted using an open procedure, resulting in a contract worth a total of £10,000,000 spanning until May 2034. Key stakeholders include contractors such as CGW Contractors (SW) Ltd., Boden Group Facilities Limited, among others, who will oversee three distinct lots covering drainage, flooring, and electrical works, respectively.

This framework represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in maintenance services. The division into three lots allows companies with expertise in either drainage, flooring, or electrical works to participate and leverage their capabilities. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) particularly stand to benefit as the framework supports this business category, and the potential for direct award or further competition under the open framework allows for flexibility in service provision. Companies that excel in integration or have specialised skills in emergency services and scheduled maintenance will find this contract conducive for growth, given the scale and extended term of the agreement.
