Summary of the contracting process

NHS Property Services Limited procured fire alarm installation work for the fire alarm at The Willows Surgery. The requirement is classified as works and concerns installation of a fire-alarm system. The named site is The Willows Surgery; the procurement does not identify a town or wider delivery area. The buyer is NHS Property Services Limited, a public authority responsible for property used by NHS services. The requirement is focused on a single surgery rather than a broader programme of fire-alarm work. Amspec Limited was selected to carry out the installation.

The procurement is complete: Amspec Limited was awarded the contract, which is active and signed. The contract period runs from 8 October 2026 to 6 November 2026. The contract value is £43,152.30 excluding tax (£51,782.76 including tax). The procurement used a limited competition below the applicable threshold. It was organised as one lot, covering the fire-alarm installation at The Willows Surgery. The published information does not state a separate award date; the contract was signed on 8 October 2026. No evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility requirements are set out in the available procurement details.

For suppliers considering similar future work for NHS Property Services, this award demonstrates demand for a focused fire-alarm installation at an NHS surgery, rather than a large multi-site programme. Amspec Limited, identified as a small or medium-sized enterprise, was selected through limited competition below threshold. That provides evidence that a smaller specialist contractor can win this type of requirement through this route. To be credible for a comparable requirement, a competitor would need to demonstrate the practical ability to install fire-alarm systems in a healthcare premises and deliver a defined site-based works contract. The procurement details do not establish particular accreditations, technical specifications or experience thresholds, so none can be treated as a stated condition of this award.
