Summary of the contracting process

Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board (CTMUHB) procured accredited certification services for its ISO 14001:2015 environmental management standard. The requirement covers annual assessment and continuing certification of environmental aspects associated with healthcare and clinical services. The certified scope includes Prince Charles Hospital, Royal Glamorgan Hospital, Princess of Wales Hospital, 31 community hospitals, health centres and clinics. NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, managed the procurement for CTMUHB. The work is delivered across the CTMUHB estate in Wales and is classified as building and facilities management services. It concerns recertification and ongoing support for the organisation’s environmental management arrangements across acute, community and primary care sites.

The procurement is complete and was run as a below-threshold open competition. One lot covered the full requirement. The tender deadline was 6 March 2026 at 5pm, and the contract period runs from 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2029. The estimated value was £30,000 excluding VAT, or £35,999 including VAT. Evaluation weighted technical quality at 70% and commercial cost at 30%. Five bids reached the final stage, all from SMEs. BSI Assurance UK Limited was awarded the contract on 1 April 2026 for £30,000 excluding VAT, or £36,000 including VAT. The contract was signed on 5 May 2026 and is active. The award requires the initial assessment, ongoing certification support and maintenance of the certification scope.

This procurement shows demand from a Welsh NHS health board for an accredited environmental management certification provider able to work across hospitals, community hospitals, health centres and clinics. A credible competitor would need UKAS accreditation for ISO 14001 assessment and certification, practical capacity to carry out an initial assessment across a complex healthcare estate, and the resources to provide continuing customer service and certification support. Relevant knowledge and experience in NHS Wales, particularly CTMUHB, were explicit requirements. Suppliers would also need to manage changes to the certification scope when the organisation changes, apply agreed pro rata rates, and avoid claims for lost profit or programme disruption. The competition attracted five final-stage bids, all from SMEs.
