Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS Lanarkshire is procuring managed winter maintenance services for University Hospital Wishaw. The requirement covers gritting, salting and snow clearance, using local weather monitoring and forecasting to determine when services are needed. It is a grounds and winter-maintenance service, including winter-maintenance materials and snow-clearing services. The tender lists University Hospital Monklands as the delivery location, while the procurement title identifies University Hospital Wishaw; suppliers should check the tender documents carefully to confirm the operational site or sites. The buying organisation is NHS Lanarkshire, a public healthcare body in Scotland. The service is intended to maintain safe access and surrounding grounds during winter conditions, rather than to supply standalone materials or one-off clearance work.

The procurement has reached tender: NHS Lanarkshire invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission required. The tender return deadline, as amended after clarification information was issued, is 23 September 2026 at 17:00. Tender opening is scheduled for 24 September 2026 at 08:00, and submitted bids must remain valid for 180 days. The initial contract period is 360 days, with an option to extend for two further 12-month periods. The estimated procurement value is £138 GBP. Evaluation is stated as 50% quality and 50% cost, with the published criteria also showing a 50% price element. Variants are not permitted. Similar services may be procured again when the initial term or extensions expire.

This opportunity suits contractors able to provide a managed winter-grounds service for a healthcare site, with the equipment, staff and operational capacity to grit, salt and clear snow when weather conditions require it. Relevant suppliers are likely to have experience planning and delivering responsive winter maintenance, monitoring local forecasts, prioritising access routes and working safely around a hospital environment. The requirement may suit established grounds-maintenance, facilities-management or specialist winter-services businesses, including firms able to provide both treatment and physical snow clearance. Bidders must meet the supplier suitability requirements set out in the invitation-to-tender documents, including the economic and technical selection requirements. Electronic ordering and payment arrangements are supported, and the contract may create repeat work through later procurement of similar services.
