Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "New Water Mains Installation" project at Edgware Hospital was overseen by NHS Property Services Limited, a public authority operating within the sub-central government sector in the United Kingdom. The project falls under the 'works' industry category, specifically for water-main refurbishment construction work. As of 28th July 2026, the procurement stage has reached the contract award phase with the contract having been signed on 27th July 2026 and is set to run from 30th July 2026 to 31st March 2027. The procurement method utilised was direct and below threshold, without competition, and was completed with Affinity Water Limited as the successful supplier.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) involved in construction and infrastructure development, particularly those specialising in water mains and related refurbishment work. Companies that are agile and capable of delivering high-quality work under direct procurement terms could benefit from similar future projects facilitated by NHS Property Services or similar public authorities. By participating in projects that do not require competitive tendering, businesses can establish valuable relationships with public authorities, paving the way for further growth and collaborative opportunities.
