UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Hertfordshire Hospitals NHS Trust procured emergency DCU supply and plant room asbestos decontamination services for its hospital operations. The requirement covers specialist asbestos decontamination associated with the DCU supply and plant room, delivered for the Trust in Watford, Hertfordshire. It is a facilities management service, classified under CPV 79993000. The work is relevant to businesses providing asbestos decontamination and related building or facilities management services in healthcare environments. The named public-sector buyer is West Hertfordshire Hospitals NHS Trust. The requirement is focused on an emergency response and on decontamination of specified hospital plant and supply-room facilities, rather than general construction or routine cleaning services.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded following a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, using a waiver. SCK Group Ltd was selected as the supplier, with the award recorded as active. The contract was signed on 26 August 2026 and runs from 27 August 2026 to 27 November 2026. Its value is £101,907.96 excluding VAT, or £122,289.55 including VAT. The award date is not separately recorded. There is one completed lot covering the full requirement. The process therefore records an emergency, single-supplier route rather than a competitive tender, with the contract awarded for a defined short-term period.

For suppliers assessing future demand from this NHS Trust, the award demonstrates a requirement for specialist asbestos decontamination linked to hospital plant-room and DCU supply infrastructure. A credible competitor would need the operational capability to respond to an emergency requirement, manage asbestos decontamination safely in a live healthcare setting, and work around critical hospital facilities. Relevant experience in building and facilities management, particularly work involving plant rooms and controlled decontamination environments, would strengthen a future response. Suppliers would also need sufficient capacity to deliver a self-contained service for a substantial hospital requirement and to operate effectively where the buyer uses a direct, below-threshold route for urgent needs.
