Summary of the contracting process

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde has completed a procurement process for a Building Energy Management System (BEMS) upgrade at several of its hospitals, including Queen Elizabeth University Neurology, Gartnavel Hospital, Dental Hospital, and Vale of Leven Hospital. This award falls under the 'services' category with a focus on energy management, classified under CPV code 75111200. The procurement method used was a limited procedure without prior publication, leading to a single award to Schneider Electric, the existing supplier responsible for the initial installation and maintenance of these systems. The contract, valued at £556,944, was signed on 3rd August 2026.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in energy management systems, particularly those with in-depth knowledge of healthcare facilities and the ability to ensure minimal operational disruption. Schneider Electric's selection highlights a demand for manufacturers with bespoke solutions and advanced knowledge of existing systems. Organizations with similar capabilities and credentials should monitor future opportunities for complex system upgrades within healthcare environments, especially where deep technical integration is required to meet stringent operational standards.

Notice Title

Schneider Electric Building Energy Management System Upgrade

Notice Description

NHS GG&C require the Building Energy Management System (BEMS) at Queen Elizabeth University Neurology, Gartnavel Hospital, Dental Hospital and Vale of Leven Hospital to be upgraded.

Lot Information

Lot 1

NHS GG&C require the Building Energy Management System to be upgraded as follows: Vale of Leven: EBO Server Transition and EcoStruxure Building Management System Solution. Gartnavel Hospital: EBO System Infrastructure Enabling Works including Gartnavel Hospital Site Transition System Upgrade Main Block, System Upgrade Homeopathic Unit and System Upgrade PET Scanner Building. Queen Elizabeth University Hospital: Energy Works Automatic Controls and EBO Server Transition. Dental Hospital: EBO Server Transition NHS GGC believe Schneider Electric are the only company that can provide this requirement as the manufacturer of products concerned and due to the close loop nature of the system itself. Furthermore, as the site is a complex and live healthcare environment, sound working knowledge of the installed systems and their hosted plant is essential to minimise the risk of unforeseen downtime impacting patient care services. Schneider Electric installed the systems when the building was originally constructed, and, as the incumbent, has operated and maintained the building controls systems since. NHS GGC believe is the only organisation able to demonstrate manufacturer qualified staff, in all of the required disciplines and systems, with access to the required software engineering tools and support, and in-depth knowledge of the building and current controls installation. Consequently awarding to another supplier would cost a significant amount money and disruption to NHSGGC Staff and Patients. Therefore the best course of action to insure compliance with procurement regulations is to publish a voluntary ex ante transparency (VEAT) notice.
