Summary of the contracting process

East and North Hertfordshire Teaching NHS Trust procured installation services for washers that it had already purchased and stored on site. The work is a facilities-management installation requirement, classified under CPV 79993000, rather than the supply of the washers themselves. The buyer is an NHS teaching trust based at Lister Hospital in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, and the installation is for equipment held at the Trust’s site. The requirement relates to fitting and commissioning existing washer assets so they can be put into service. It is relevant to businesses that install commercial or healthcare washers, manage equipment installation projects, and can work within an NHS hospital environment. The successful provider was Steris Solutions Limited, a large UK supplier.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition, conducted under the Trust’s standing financial instructions using a quotation reference. Steris Solutions Limited was awarded the single lot. The contract was signed on 18 September 2026 and runs from 21 September 2026 to 21 December 2026. Its value is £38,542.50 excluding VAT, or £46,251 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The recorded award date is 21 September 2026. The published process identifies the requirement as services and evaluates it through the limited-competition quotation route. The outcome shows that the Trust selected Steris Solutions Limited to install the washers already purchased and stored on site.

This procurement shows a defined NHS requirement for specialist installation of already-purchased washer equipment, delivered through a below-threshold limited competition rather than a large open tender. A credible competitor for similar work would need practical experience installing commercial or healthcare washers, the technical ability to work with equipment supplied by the buyer, and sufficient operational capacity to complete a focused installation project within a hospital setting. Familiarity with NHS site working arrangements and the discipline needed for work in a live healthcare environment would strengthen a supplier’s position. The successful supplier’s profile also indicates that a well-established, large-scale provider was able to satisfy the Trust’s quotation-based procurement route.
