Summary of the contracting process

Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board commissioned maintenance of its uninterruptible power supply (UPS) and isolated power systems (IPS). The work covers repair and maintenance of electrical building installations, including the existing UPS and IPS infrastructure and recently upgraded assets. NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership–Procurement Services managed the procurement on the health board’s behalf. The requirement is for continuity of service and technical support while the infrastructure upgrade programme continues. It is a specialist electrical maintenance service for critical power infrastructure in a healthcare setting, rather than a general building maintenance requirement. Businesses with relevant UPS and IPS maintenance capability, particularly those supporting operational healthcare estates, would be the closest fit.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, under Schedule 5, paragraph 7(2) of the Procurement Act 2023. Powerworks Maintenance Services Ltd was selected because it already maintains the infrastructure and changing supplier during the upgrade programme was judged to create disproportionate technical and operational difficulties. One lot was awarded. The award date was 29 July 2026, and the contract was signed on 12 August 2026. The contract runs from 18 August 2026 to 17 August 2027. Its value is £38,020 excluding VAT, or £45,624 including VAT. The contract is active.

This award demonstrates a continuing requirement from Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board for specialist maintenance of UPS and IPS systems supporting critical healthcare infrastructure. A future competitor would need demonstrable technical competence in both uninterruptible power supplies and isolated power systems, including planned and responsive maintenance of existing installations and recently upgraded assets. Experience of working safely around live, safety-critical electrical infrastructure would be important, as would the ability to provide dependable support throughout an infrastructure upgrade programme without disrupting healthcare operations. Suppliers should be able to show continuity of service, familiarity with complex installed assets and sufficient engineering capacity to maintain the health board’s systems across the contract requirement.
