Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for bottled water, initiated by the Belfast Health and Social Care Trust, has reached the contract award stage, with Soileir Limited appointed as the supplier. This award involves supplying and delivering bottled water to Health and Social Care facilities across Northern Ireland for resale purposes. The project, which spans from 1st March 2026 to 29th February 2028, encompasses several regions including Belfast, Antrim, Portadown, and Londonderry, falling under the category of non-alcoholic beverages and mineral water. The open procurement method was utilised, ensuring competitive participation among bidders, while adhering to the Northern Irish devolved regulations and public authority norms. The contract allows for renewable terms up to an additional 24 months, providing potential growth opportunities within the duration.

For businesses in sectors such as food and beverage production, particularly those specialising in mineral water, this contract presents significant opportunities for business growth through supply chain expansion and increased visibility within public health sectors. SMEs demonstrating a commitment to quality and capability in meeting the specifications will be well-positioned to compete, leveraging the contract's renewal and option clauses to scale their operations. Engaging in this procurement provides not only a stable partnership with health service entities but also access to expanding product ranges based on service user needs, thus creating avenues for growth in service offerings and geographic reach.
