Summary of the contracting process

Medway NHS Foundation Trust procured water maintenance and water sampling and analysis services for its facilities. The requirement is described as water maintenance and analysis sampling, with the associated work classified as surface water treatment services. The buyer is Medway NHS Foundation Trust, based at Medway Maritime Hospital in Gillingham. This is a facilities water-management requirement combining maintenance with sampling and analysis, rather than a supply of water or a construction project. The scope is presented as one requirement for the Trust; no specific sites beyond the Trust’s Gillingham location or detailed technical tasks are identified in the procurement description.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to ProEconomy Limited. The Trust used a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 25 August 2025 and runs from 1 September 2025 to 31 August 2026. Its value is £19,704 excluding VAT (£23,644.80 including VAT). The award is active and relates to a single lot. The published data does not set out an evaluation basis or competitive scoring criteria; the route recorded was a non-competitive direct award. The stated requirement period in the description is written as 1 May 2026 to 30 April 2026, which conflicts with the contract period recorded above.

This award demonstrates a recurring Trust requirement for water-system maintenance alongside sampling and analysis, including work classified as surface water treatment. Suppliers competing for a future requirement of this kind would need to deliver practical maintenance and water-monitoring services for a healthcare estate, with the capacity to carry out sampling and analysis as part of the service. The selected supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that a smaller specialist provider was able to undertake this contract at a single-lot scale. Relevant experience in water treatment and maintenance, dependable service delivery across the Trust’s facilities, and the ability to provide credible analytical results would be commercially pertinent when this buyer next procures similar work.
