UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

St George's University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is procuring safety officer services for its hospital helipad. The requirement covers the provision of personnel responsible for helipad safety, including health and safety services, health and safety consultancy, safety consultancy and rescue services. Delivery is required in the United Kingdom. This is a public-sector healthcare opportunity for organisations able to provide operational safety cover in a helipad environment, with the associated advice, monitoring and rescue capability. The requirement is presented as a single package rather than separate service areas, so suppliers should be able to address the full combination of helipad safety officer provision and related safety and rescue activities.

The procurement has reached tender: the Trust invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission allowed in English via Atamis. Enquiries had to be submitted by 21 September 2026 at 14:00, and tenders by 28 September 2026 at 12:00. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 April 2027 to 30 April 2030, with the option of incremental one-year extensions for up to two further years, subject to the stated maximum end date of 31 March 2032. The published estimated value is £0 gross in total. Evaluation is weighted 60% to quality requirements and 40% to commercial requirements. The award decision is due by 1 February 2027. Payment terms are 30 days.

This opportunity suits specialist aviation, healthcare or emergency-services contractors that can provide competent helipad safety officers and support them with robust health and safety consultancy. Relevant capability includes managing operational risks around helicopter landing areas, applying documented procedures, coordinating responses to incidents and delivering rescue support. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate reliable staffing, clear lines of responsibility, effective communication with hospital and emergency-service stakeholders, and the capacity to maintain cover throughout the service requirement. The buyer highlights requirements and key performance indicators, so bidders will need practical systems for monitoring performance, reporting failures and putting corrective action in place. The opportunity is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it potentially relevant to focused safety, rescue or specialist aviation providers as well as larger contractors.
