Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Maintenance of Network Structured Cabling All Sites," led by the Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust, is situated in Basildon, Essex. It falls under the category of services, specifically focusing on data network management and support services. Initially, the process was active with a substantial contract value pegged at £16,200,000 GBP, following an open and competitive flexible procedure. However, due to internal productivity changes, the tender was cancelled and a refresh of the tender is anticipated imminently as of 18 February 2026. The procurement intended to cover structured cabling maintenance across sites with a contract period set from 31 May 2026 to 30 May 2029. Key points such as deadlines and submission policies were handled with a two-stage process focusing on pass/fail in the first stage, elevating successful applicants to a second evaluation stage.

This tender provides a unique opportunity for businesses specialising in cabling and data network services to expand their operations through substantial, long-term engagements. It is particularly suited for companies equipped with capabilities in network infrastructure maintenance and advanced cabling solutions, ensuring efficient operation across multiple sites. The requirement for a competitive flexible procedure indicates a preference for businesses adept at navigating complex procurement stages and delivering quality services in line with stringent public sector standards. Firms that can showcase strong technical expertise and meet the economic and specification criteria set out will find significant potential in pursuing contracts with this NHS Trust that align with the refreshed tender opportunities due to the recent cancellation.
