Summary of the contracting process

City Hospitals Independent Commercial Enterprises Limited is procuring measured-term pest-control services for NHS hospital and associated healthcare sites. The work covers Sunderland Royal Hospital, Sunderland Children’s Centre, Sunderland Specialist Eye Hospital, Washington Primary Care Centre and Durham Treatment Centre, together with South Tyneside District Hospital, St Benedicts Hospice, Palmers Community Hospital, Clarendon House and Haven Court. The buying organisation is based at Sunderland Royal Hospital. This is a services requirement for planned and responsive pest-control work across sites in Sunderland and South Tyneside. Suppliers specialising in commercial pest management for healthcare, hospital and community-care premises should find the scope relevant. The procurement is divided between the Sunderland Royal Hospital group of sites and the South Tyneside District Hospital group of sites.

The procurement reached tender and the buyer invited offers through an open procedure. Questions could be submitted by 28 September 2026 at 23:59, and bids were due by 12 October 2026 at 23:59. The intended evaluation decision date was 1 November 2026. The estimated value is £230,000 excluding VAT, or £276,000 including VAT. Lot 1, covering the Sunderland sites, is valued at £120,000 excluding VAT (£144,000 including VAT), stated as £24,000 per year. Lot 2, covering the South Tyneside sites, is valued at £110,000 excluding VAT (£132,000 including VAT), stated as £22,000 per year. Each lot has an initial three-year contract from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2029, with extensions potentially available until 31 October 2031. Both lots are evaluated on 80% price and 20% quality.

This opportunity suits established pest-control providers able to deliver a measured-term service across multiple hospital, hospice, primary-care and community healthcare premises. Relevant suppliers will need practical capability in commercial pest management and the capacity to cover sites across Sunderland and South Tyneside under one or both service packages. The two lots are identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so the requirement may suit regional specialists as well as larger national providers. Businesses with dependable field-service operations, suitably equipped technicians and experience coordinating work across several healthcare locations are well placed to compete. The evaluation gives price the greater weighting, while quality remains important, so bidders will need to demonstrate a credible service approach as well as competitive pricing.
