UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

East and North Hertfordshire Teaching NHS Trust procured maintenance services for its EasiHeat steam system. The requirement covers ongoing servicing and maintenance of steam-system equipment used by the Trust, under the broader category of building and facilities management services. The work is for the Trust’s estate in East and North Hertfordshire, with the buyer based at Lister Hospital in Stevenage. This is a specialist facilities-maintenance requirement rather than a general construction or supply contract. It is relevant to businesses that maintain EasiHeat or comparable steam systems and can support critical healthcare facilities. The named public-sector buyer is East and North Hertfordshire Teaching NHS Trust, a teaching NHS organisation serving the local area.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. The Trust approved the award through a waiver in line with its standing financial instructions. One completed lot was awarded to Spirax-Sarco Limited, whose award is active. The contract was signed on 23 June 2026 and runs from 30 June 2026 to 29 June 2029. Its value is £31,918 excluding VAT, or £38,301.60 including VAT. The contract is active and the requirement was evaluated through the limited-competition route. The process was below the applicable threshold. The selected supplier is Spirax-Sarco Limited, based in Gloucestershire. The procurement concerned one requirement and one supplier; the figures stated are for that contract only.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for specialist steam-system maintenance within an NHS teaching trust, delivered over a multi-year service period. A credible future competitor would need practical capability in maintaining EasiHeat steam systems or closely comparable steam and facilities equipment, together with the engineering capacity to provide planned and responsive support across a healthcare estate. Experience of working safely in hospitals or other operationally sensitive environments would strengthen a supplier’s position, because maintenance must be carried out without disrupting essential services. Businesses should also be able to manage a sustained service relationship with a public-sector estates team, document maintenance activity clearly and meet the reliability, compliance and response expectations associated with critical building services.
