Summary of the contracting process

Alder Hey is procuring surface water services for Beech House. The requirement is classified as surface water pollution monitoring or control services, covering work to monitor or control pollution associated with surface water. Delivery spans England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. Alder Hey is the buying organisation and is based on Lower Lane in Fazakerley, Liverpool. The requirement is service-based rather than for goods, construction or infrastructure works. Businesses operating in surface water monitoring, pollution control, water-quality management or related environmental services would be aligned with the subject matter, particularly those able to support activity across several English regions and coordinate delivery for an NHS organisation.

The procurement has been completed and the contract awarded. Alder Hey used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, with one completed lot. Water Plus Limited was selected on 17 July 2026, and the contract was signed the same day. The contract runs from 20 July 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its value is £16,222.56 excluding the gross amount of £19,467.07, both in GBP. The awarded service is surface water pollution monitoring or control. The contract is active. Evaluation through a competitive tender was not used because this was a below-threshold direct award without competition. The award relates to the single lot covering the surface water requirement for Beech House and the listed English delivery areas.

This award indicates that Alder Hey purchases specialist surface water pollution monitoring or control services through a direct, below-threshold route. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable capability in surface water quality, pollution monitoring or pollution-control services, with the operational capacity to deliver consistently for an NHS buyer. The requirement covers a geographically broad English footprint, so suppliers should be able to manage work across multiple regions rather than at one isolated site. Relevant firms are likely to include established water-service providers and environmental specialists with the systems, staff and field capability to support monitoring and control activity. The selected supplier is a large company, suggesting that scale and dependable service delivery may be important when this type of requirement next reaches the market.
