Summary of the contracting process

The West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, located in Watford, United Kingdom, has awarded a contract for the "Detection Systems Lifecycle Replacement" project, classified under the building construction industry category. This process underwent a direct procurement method below the threshold, without competition, resulting in the completion of the award to ALARM COMMUNICATION LIMITED on 10th March 2026. The procurement stage is in the "Award" phase, with the contract actively running from 1st April 2026 to 1st June 2026. The total contract value is £152,352.04, with a net amount of £126,960.03.
