Summary of the contracting process

Northumbria Healthcare Facilities Management, a public authority within the central government sector in the United Kingdom, has initiated an open procurement process for the "Theatre UPS Replacements" in North Tyneside General Hospital Theatres Department. This procurement process is currently at the tender update stage with a deadline for tender submissions on 7th August 2026 and for enquiries by 31st July 2026. The procurement is below the threshold for open competition and involves the supply of uninterruptible power supplies as the main category with additional services. Located in the UKC22 region, this procurement process seeks to replace UPS systems across multiple delivery locations within the UK.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in electrical goods, particularly those providing uninterruptible power supplies and associated services. With its gross contract value set at £19,200, it presents potential growth in partnerships through the provision of quality goods with an emphasis on competitive pricing, with 60% of the tender evaluation focusing on price and 40% on quality. Companies that can provide comprehensive solutions, including warranty and maintenance services well suited to the requirement of 4 years of annual maintenance post the initial one-year term, are encouraged to participate. The open competition framework and electronic submission policy further simplify the entry to this procurement initiative, promoting business scalability within government contracting spheres.
