Summary of the contracting process

QE Facilities Ltd commissioned building management system services for ECC and Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH). The requirement is classified as repair and maintenance services and concerns the building management system serving these facilities. The buyer is QE Facilities Ltd, associated with Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Gateshead. The awarded work is therefore relevant to firms providing building management system servicing and maintenance in a hospital and facilities-management setting. The contract item is linked to delivery in the United Kingdom, while the buyer’s address identifies Gateshead. The scope is described at a high level as building management system services for ECC and QEH; no further technical breakdown is included in the procurement description.

The procurement is complete and awarded to Schneider Electric Limited. QE Facilities Ltd used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 30 September 2026 and runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. Its recorded value is £57,559 excluding VAT and £67,631.83 including VAT. The procurement description separately states a cost of £60,370 for the same stated period; this figure is not identified as the awarded contract value. The process is divided into one lot, which is complete. The published award information does not set out a scored evaluation basis or specific participation criteria.

This award provides a direct example of QE Facilities Ltd buying building management system repair and maintenance for ECC and Queen Elizabeth Hospital. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to demonstrate the technical capability to maintain building management systems in operational hospital facilities, together with the capacity to cover the named facilities. Schneider Electric Limited, a large supplier, was selected through a direct award without competition, so this outcome does not show how competing bids would have been assessed or which credentials were decisive. Suppliers whose core offer is building management system servicing and maintenance, and who can support hospital facilities, are the closest fit. The procurement establishes demand for this specific service from this buyer; it does not evidence demand for wider hospital maintenance work.
