UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust bought macerators together with a two-year maintenance service. The requirement covers the supply and upkeep of equipment used for waste-water and sanitary applications, classified as plumbing and sanitary works. The buying organisation is Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, a public healthcare body based in Worthing. The procurement was arranged as a single requirement rather than separate lots, and the selected supplier was responsible for the complete package. This is relevant to businesses that manufacture, distribute, install or maintain macerators and related sanitary equipment, particularly those able to provide both the equipment and ongoing servicing for an NHS organisation.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded directly without competition under a below-threshold procedure. DDC Dolphin Limited was selected as the supplier on 2 September 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The active contract runs from 30 October 2026 to 30 October 2028. Its value is £19,056 excluding VAT and £22,867.20 including VAT. The award covers the single lot for macerators and maintenance. The requirement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender, so there were no competing bids or published scored evaluation criteria. The contract remains active for delivery of the equipment and maintenance service.

This award shows a defined NHS requirement for macerators supported by planned maintenance, rather than a one-off equipment sale. Suppliers competing when this requirement next returns would need a reliable source of suitable macerators, practical knowledge of plumbing and sanitary systems, and the ability to provide responsive servicing over a sustained period. Businesses combining equipment supply with maintenance delivery are better aligned than firms offering only products or isolated repair work. The selected supplier is an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only a large national contractor. Relevant competitors should be able to demonstrate dependable service capacity and experience supporting healthcare or comparable sanitary environments.
