UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Christie NHS Foundation Trust procured servicing and maintenance of the uninterruptible power supply (UPS) equipment at its main site in Manchester. This is specialist electrical machinery maintenance, covering the equipment that provides backup power. The requirement is for the Trust’s main site rather than a wider set of locations.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Bender UK Limited. The Trust used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 31 July 2026 and runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £10,242.93 excluding VAT and £12,291.52 including VAT. The requirement was treated as one lot. No award date or separate evaluation criteria are stated.

This award shows demand at The Christie NHS Foundation Trust for ongoing UPS servicing and maintenance at its main Manchester site. Suppliers seeking to compete for a similar requirement would need practical expertise in maintaining uninterruptible power supplies and associated electrical equipment, with the capacity to support critical backup-power infrastructure at a hospital site. The limited-competition route used for this below-threshold requirement is relevant to suppliers monitoring smaller, targeted service contracts. The successful supplier was Bender UK Limited, a large business; the published details do not establish specific certifications, technical standards or staffing requirements that competitors would need to match.
