Summary of the contracting process

NHS Property Services Limited commissioned the replacement of the gas-fired heating system at Fullwell Cross Medical Centre with electric air-to-water heat pumps and an associated heating distribution system. This is building-services installation work, specifically heating and ventilation system installation (CPV 45331000). The purpose is to decarbonise the medical centre’s existing heating. The work is at Fullwell Cross Medical Centre; the procurement data does not identify its town or city. The requirement is a single package of works, rather than separate service or equipment purchases. It combines the heat-pump installation with the distribution system needed to serve the building, so it is relevant to contractors able to deliver an integrated heating-system replacement in a healthcare property.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to W.S. Swift Services Limited. NHS Property Services Limited used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 12 October 2026, with work scheduled from 12 October 2026 to 15 February 2027. Its value is £806,252.23 excluding VAT and £967,502.68 including VAT. The procurement was organised as one lot. The award is active and the contract is active. The published procurement data does not set out an evaluation method or specific eligibility conditions, so the basis on which bids were assessed cannot be described from these details. The contract covers the heating-system replacement and associated distribution works at Fullwell Cross Medical Centre.

This award shows NHS Property Services buying a substantial, integrated decarbonisation project for an occupied medical centre: replacing gas-fired heating with electric air-to-water heat pumps and the associated heating distribution system. Suppliers best placed to compete when this requirement returns are mechanical and building-services contractors able to design, install and integrate heat-pump systems with existing building heating infrastructure, and to manage the full works package rather than supply equipment alone. Experience delivering comparable heating upgrades in healthcare or other operational buildings would be relevant to demonstrating an understanding of site constraints and continuity of building services. The selected supplier is an SME, evidence that a smaller business has delivered this type of project for the buyer. The route used was limited competition below the applicable threshold.
