Summary of the contracting process

The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust procured the supply and installation of fire doors for Bevan Ward at its hospital in Harlow. This is building installation work focused on fire-door provision for a named ward, with the stated purpose of supporting compliance with the Trust’s requirements. The contract covers both supplying the doors and installing them; it is not described as a wider hospital fire-safety programme or work across multiple sites. The buyer is the NHS Trust, and the delivery location is its hospital in Harlow, Essex.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Archizone Site Services Ltd. The Trust used a below-threshold limited competition, seeking at least three quotations under its Standing Financial Instructions. One lot covered the work. The contract was signed on 24 September 2026 and runs from 25 September to 23 October 2026. Its value is £35,397.90 excluding VAT (£42,477.48 including VAT). The published outcome gives no separate award date or evaluation criteria, so the basis on which quotations were compared is not stated in the procurement details.

For suppliers of fire doors and building installation services, this award shows a specific NHS Trust requirement combining door supply with on-site installation in a hospital ward. A credible competitor for comparable work would need to source suitable fire doors and deliver their installation as a joined-up package, with the capability to work within an operational hospital setting and meet the buyer’s compliance requirements. The route used here involved limited competition and multiple quotations for a below-threshold requirement, so suppliers should be equipped to respond to a quotation exercise rather than assume an open tender. The winning supplier was Archizone Site Services Ltd.; the process records no further technical, accreditation, capacity or experience requirements.
