Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire Community Health Services NHS Foundation Trust procured ad-hoc laundry services for Bennerley Fields, Staveley Centre and Thomas Fields. The requirement covers the collection, processing and supply of laundered items for these three sites, under the plain-language category of commercial laundry operation services (CPV 98311200). The buyer is an NHS foundation trust serving community health needs in Derbyshire. The services are associated with healthcare locations, so the requirement is relevant to laundry operators able to organise delivery and service across multiple sites rather than to suppliers of laundry equipment or general cleaning services. The named locations are Bennerley Fields, Staveley Centre and Thomas Fields.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. Elis UK Limited was selected as the supplier on 25 June 2026. The contract value is £37,500 excluding VAT and £45,000 including VAT. The recorded contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 July 2027. The tender description refers to an initial period running to 30 June 2027 and an option for a contract break after an initial three-month trial. The stated average cost was £468.28 per site per week. There was one completed lot. The requirement was treated as a services procurement and the recorded award is active.

This award shows established demand from an NHS community health provider for ad-hoc laundry services delivered to three healthcare sites, with a multi-site operating model and a material recurring service requirement. A supplier competing for a future requirement from this buyer would need practical laundry-processing capability, dependable collection and delivery arrangements, and the capacity to serve Bennerley Fields, Staveley Centre and Thomas Fields consistently. Experience coordinating service across several locations would be relevant, as would the operational resilience needed for healthcare customers and changing ad-hoc requirements. The procurement route also indicates that the buyer has previously used a below-threshold direct award without competition, so suppliers should monitor this buyer's purchasing activity and be ready to demonstrate a credible, established laundry service.
