Summary of the contracting process

The Somerset NHS Foundation Trust has completed a procurement process for a service contract involving coldrooms, refrigeration, and air conditioning at its CMH sites. Classified under the services category, the contract is located in the UKK23 region, specifically Taunton, United Kingdom. The procurement was initiated directly without competition, due to it being below the threshold. The procurement stage has reached completion with the contract becoming active as of 1st April 2026, and will run until 31st March 2027. The contract, signed on 27th March 2026, has a gross value of £24,832.80.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in repair and maintenance services of electrical and mechanical building installations.

Bartlett Limited from Exeter, who secured the contract, can benefit from similar opportunities to offer their expertise to large entities such as the NHS. Businesses equipped to perform in this industry could discover potential prospects in servicing high-traffic, critical infrastructure facilities. The procurement process being direct and below threshold suggests an easier entry compared to competitive bids, enabling more streamlined access for capable service providers.
