UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Birmingham Women's and Children's NHS Foundation Trust focused on "Mechanical Insurance Inspections" for essential services. The procurement was classified under the services category, specifically engineering and insurance-related services. This process took place in Birmingham, UK, with the final award status marked as complete. Zurich Assurance Ltd was chosen as the supplier, implying that the contract was awarded without competitive bidding, as it was below threshold direct procurement. The contract began on 1st July 2025 and is set to conclude on 30th June 2030, with a total gross value of £110,454. This procurement was managed in collaboration with the Birmingham and Solihull Procurement Collaborative, part of the University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust.

This tender presents growth opportunities for large-scale businesses involved in insurance and engineering services, especially those interested in long-term contracts with public health organisations. Given its procurement method, businesses that specialise in delivering efficient and reliable insurance inspection services without engaging in competitive bidding are particularly well-suited. Companies with the capability to manage comprehensive insurance solutions within the healthcare sector can expand their market presence by engaging with this and similar NHS Trust procurements. The collaboration facilitated by the Birmingham and Solihull Procurement Collaborative may provide additional future opportunities within the regional healthcare network.
