Summary of the contracting process

NHS Property Services Limited procured the installation of new gas mains at Edgware Community Hospital. The requirement is a public utilities service involving gas network infrastructure and associated installation work at the hospital site in Edgware, London. The named buyer is NHS Property Services Limited, a public authority responsible for NHS property and facilities. The procurement is focused on connecting or extending gas mains to support the hospital’s operational needs. Businesses relevant to this requirement are gas network operators, utility infrastructure contractors and specialist firms able to undertake new gas mains installation in a healthcare setting. The work is site-specific rather than a general property maintenance requirement, so suppliers should assess their capability in gas distribution infrastructure and hospital-site delivery before considering the buyer’s future requirements.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. One completed lot was awarded to CADENT GAS LIMITED. The award was made on 27 July 2026 and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract value is £31,408.29 excluding VAT, or £37,689.95 including VAT. The contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. The tender was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender, and the published requirement was for new gas mains installation at Edgware Community Hospital. The awarded contract is recorded as active, with CADENT GAS LIMITED as the selected supplier for the full requirement.

This award indicates a defined NHS Property Services requirement for specialist gas mains installation at an individual hospital site, delivered by a large gas utility company. Competitors seeking similar work from this buyer would need credible capability in gas network infrastructure, new mains installation and public utility services, together with the operational capacity to work safely around a live healthcare environment. Experience coordinating site access, protecting hospital operations and meeting gas infrastructure standards would strengthen a supplier’s position when comparable requirements are next considered. The direct-award route and below-threshold scale show that suppliers should be able to engage with smaller, site-specific utility projects as well as larger programmes. The relevant market is specialist gas infrastructure, not general building maintenance.
