UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Medway NHS Foundation Trust procured water purification systems for its hospital operations. The purchase is for water-purifying apparatus, rather than a service or construction project. The systems are for delivery in the United Kingdom; the procurement data does not identify a more specific delivery location. This requirement sits within healthcare facilities management and equipment supply, and is relevant to suppliers of water treatment and purification equipment able to supply systems to an NHS trust. The buyer is Medway NHS Foundation Trust, based at Medway Maritime Hospital in Gillingham. The published scope is stated broadly as water purification systems, without further technical specifications or an identified end-use beyond the Trust’s requirement.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Veolia Water Purification Systems Ltd. The Trust used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The award covers one lot for water purification systems. The contract was signed on 23 September 2026 and runs from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2027. Its value is £13,265 excluding VAT and £15,918 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. No separate evaluation criteria or scoring basis are stated; the route used did not involve a competitive process. The award is for goods, specifically water-purifying apparatus.

For suppliers considering similar future requirements from Medway NHS Foundation Trust, this award shows demand for water purification equipment at a modest, single-contract scale. A credible competitor would need to supply suitable purification systems and demonstrate the ability to meet the Trust’s equipment requirement. The successful supplier is a specialist water purification systems business, suggesting that relevant product expertise and a dependable supply capability are pertinent. The procurement was handled as a below-threshold direct award without competition, so this example does not establish a competitive evaluation model or specific qualification requirements. Suppliers should therefore focus on the fit and reliability of their purification equipment for a healthcare trust, and on the capacity to fulfil a discrete supply contract rather than a broader service or works package.
