Summary of the contracting process

University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust procured EcoCare core services for building management systems, limited to Continuum controllers supplied and supported by Schneider Electric Limited. This is a specialist building-services maintenance requirement, covering the continued operation, servicing and support of controllers used within the Trust’s building management systems. The buying organisation is University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, based at Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham in Edgbaston. The work is associated with the Trust’s hospital estate in Birmingham. Businesses relevant to this requirement are providers of building management system maintenance, controls engineering and technical support, particularly those able to work with Continuum controller environments and related building installations.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The Trust used a direct award below the applicable threshold without competition. Schneider Electric Limited was selected as supplier, and the contract was signed on 31 March 2026. The contract runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2029. Its value is £24,018 excluding VAT and £28,821.60 including VAT. The procurement is classified as services for repair and maintenance of building installations. It was treated as a single lot. The award is active and the contract is active. The published outcome identifies Schneider Electric Limited as the supplier for the EcoCare core services plan covering Continuum controllers only.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for specialist maintenance and support of building management systems in a large NHS hospital estate. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical capability in building controls engineering, planned and reactive maintenance, fault diagnosis and technical support for Continuum controllers. Experience of maintaining building installations in operational healthcare environments would be commercially relevant, where system reliability, safe working and minimal disruption are important. Suppliers should be able to support controller-level issues and integrate their work with wider facilities and estates operations. The incumbent is a large specialist manufacturer, so competing businesses would need comparable technical competence, suitably experienced engineers and the capacity to provide dependable coverage for a major hospital organisation.
