Summary of the contracting process

University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust procured hard and soft facilities management services for No. 1 Bede Island. The requirement covers cleaning, window cleaning, grounds and garden maintenance, snow clearing and gritting, planned and reactive building maintenance, pest control, security and associated systems, and waste management. This is an integrated facilities management services requirement rather than a supply of equipment or construction project. The work is for the trust’s outlying property at No. 1 Bede Island, within the United Kingdom. The service scope combines day-to-day cleaning and site services with technical building maintenance, environmental upkeep, security provision and waste operations, so it is relevant to facilities management providers able to coordinate several operational disciplines under one arrangement.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a direct award. The stated rationale was to align existing facilities management contracts for the trust’s outlying properties, with single-supplier technical reasons also recorded. One lot was awarded to NHS Property Services on 27 August 2026. The award value is £230,426 excluding VAT, or £276,511.20 including VAT. The awarded contract period runs from 2 November 2026 to 13 July 2028, with a scheduled signature date of 1 October 2026. The award is active and the tender is above the applicable threshold. Evaluation was therefore not conducted through an open competition; the recorded route was a direct award to the selected supplier.

This award indicates a requirement for an established, multi-service facilities management operator capable of delivering both hard and soft FM at a property serving a major NHS trust. Credible competitors for a future requirement would need practical capacity across cleaning, window cleaning, grounds maintenance, winter services, planned and reactive maintenance, pest control, security systems and waste management, with the ability to manage these services as one coordinated operation. Experience of maintaining occupied healthcare or other public-sector environments would strengthen a supplier’s position, particularly where reliable response, compliance, security and continuity across dispersed NHS properties are important. The direct-award route and existing-contract alignment show that integration with the buyer’s wider FM arrangements is commercially significant.
