Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, in collaboration with Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board, has awarded a direct contract to Weishaupt UK Ltd for the maintenance of Weishaupt Burners at Ysbyty Cwm Rhondda and Royal Glamorgan Hospital. This procurement falls under the industry category of services, specifically focusing on boiler repair and maintenance. The contracting process was initiated and concluded with a direct award due to the technical specificity of the Weishaupt burner systems. The contract, valued at £43,800 before VAT, spans from 15th July 2026 to 14th July 2029. Located in Cardiff, the procurement was deemed necessary to ensure operational continuity at critical hospital sites across the region of UKL15.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in highly specialised, manufacturer-specific services, as it underscores the importance of technical expertise and existing supplier relationships. Companies with capabilities in maintaining proprietary systems, particularly in hospital settings, may find similar opportunities to showcase their technical proficiency. While this specific procurement did not open up a competitive process due to technical constraints, it highlights potential openings for businesses to establish themselves as pivotal service providers within niche markets, especially those that require bespoke technical support and avoid operational disruptions.

Notice Title

Weishaupt Burners at Ysbyty Cwm Rhondda and Royal Glamorgan Hospital

Notice Description

NWSSP on behalf of Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board (CTMUHB) intends to Direct Award a contract to Weishaupt (UK) Ltd for the provision of service maintenance of Weishaupt Burners at Ysbyty Cwm Rhondda and Royal Glamorgan Hospital. A competitive procedure is unlikely to deliver meaningful competition due to the highly specialised, manufacturer specific nature of the Weishaupt burner systems. Undertaking a full competition would also risk delaying essential maintenance at operationally critical hospital sites. Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board therefore intends to award the contract directly to Weishaupt (UK) Ltd in accordance with Section 41 and Schedule 5 of the Procurement Act 2023. This is justified under: Schedule 5, Paragraph 6 - absence of competition for technical reasons; and Schedule 5, Paragraph 7 - where a change of supplier would result in incompatibility or disproportionate technical difficulties. The contractor is the incumbent and provides specialist, manufacturer-led servicing of Weishaupt systems across the sites. Due to recent capital upgrades and reliance on proprietary components and expertise, no reasonable alternative suppliers exist. A change in supplier would create a high risk of incompatibility, operational disruption, and non-compliance.
