Summary of the contracting process

Sheffield Children's NHS Foundation Trust procured maintenance and repair services for its uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems. The requirement covers preventive maintenance and support for UPS equipment used by the Trust, including uninterruptible power supplies as the principal equipment category. The work is associated with the Trust in Sheffield and supports the continuity and reliability of electrical power for a children’s NHS healthcare organisation. This is a specialist technical services requirement rather than a supply-only purchase: relevant businesses would need to maintain, inspect, diagnose and repair UPS systems and associated equipment. The buyer is Sheffield Children's NHS Foundation Trust, based at Western Bank, Sheffield.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. It was treated as a services requirement, with one completed lot. The contract was awarded to SECURE POWER LTD on 3 August 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The active contract runs from 3 August 2026 to 31 July 2028. Its value is £21,180 excluding VAT, or £30,499.20 including VAT. SECURE POWER LTD is the selected supplier for the UPS maintenance and repair requirement. The procurement used a limited procedure, with competition restricted below the applicable threshold. The published outcome records one supplier and one award covering the complete requirement.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement at Sheffield Children's NHS Foundation Trust for dependable, ongoing technical support for critical UPS infrastructure. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement would be able to provide preventive maintenance, fault diagnosis, responsive repair and practical support for uninterruptible power supply systems in an operational NHS environment. Credibility would come from demonstrable UPS engineering capability, suitable access to replacement parts and tools, and the capacity to provide planned and corrective services throughout the contract lifecycle. Experience of maintaining power continuity equipment for healthcare or other safety-critical sites would help a competitor show that it can work reliably around essential services and minimise disruption to the Trust.
