UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS Property Services Limited commissioned works to install new water mains at Edgware Hospital. The requirement covers water-main construction and refurbishment, with the purpose of providing new mains infrastructure for the hospital site. This is a construction works opportunity rather than a supply-only or consultancy contract. The delivery location is Edgware, within the hospital premises. Businesses operating in water infrastructure, utility construction, civil engineering or specialist building-services works would find the subject matter relevant. The buyer is a public-sector property organisation responsible for NHS facilities, so suppliers whose work includes delivering infrastructure projects in operational healthcare or other complex public buildings may be particularly well aligned with the requirement.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Affinity Water Limited. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, and comprised one completed lot. The contract was signed on 27 July 2026 and has an active period from 30 July 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its value is £106,326.50 excluding VAT and £127,591.80 including VAT. The award covers the new water mains installation works at Edgware Hospital. The published outcome identifies Affinity Water Limited as the selected supplier. The process therefore records a completed, single-supplier award rather than an opportunity for further bids under this procurement.

This award is useful market evidence for contractors working in water-main installation, refurbishment and associated civil engineering. It shows NHS Property Services purchasing site-specific water infrastructure works for a hospital through a below-threshold direct-award route, with delivery assigned to a water company classified as an SME. A credible future competitor would need practical capability to plan and carry out new mains works, manage construction activity at a hospital site and provide suitably experienced delivery capacity for a defined infrastructure project. Firms with a track record of water-network construction or refurbishment, and the organisational capacity to work for an NHS property buyer, would be best placed to demonstrate a comparable fit when this type of requirement is considered again.
