UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Kent and Medway Mental Health NHS Trust procured a replacement bath for Bluebell Ward. The work covered supplying and installing a new bath accessible to both independent and dependent patients, and removing the old bath, which had been condemned. This is a specialist healthcare bathroom fitting requirement, classified as bathroom furniture (CPV 39144000). Delivery was in Kent, with the supplier based in Chatham. The requirement combined supply, removal and installation, so it suited providers able to deliver the equipment and complete the associated works for a mental health ward.

The procurement is complete and a supplier has been selected. Kent and Medway Mental Health NHS Trust awarded the contract to Wealden Rehab/Care Spaces. It was run as a below-threshold limited competition, with one lot. The contract was signed on 8 June 2026 and covers 30 September to 1 October 2026. Its value was £11,470. The available award information identifies the requirement as bathroom furniture; no separate scoring or evaluation basis is recorded in the process data.

The award shows demand from Kent and Medway Mental Health NHS Trust for accessible bath equipment in a mental health ward, including removal of condemned fittings and installation of replacements. A credible competitor for this specific requirement would need to supply baths suitable for both independent and dependent patients and carry out the removal and installation as a joined-up service. Experience working in healthcare environments and the practical capacity to coordinate equipment delivery and installation would be relevant to meeting the requirement. The competition was limited and below threshold, so a supplier’s ability to engage with a restricted procurement route is also pertinent. The awarded contract was small in scale, making this evidence of a focused replacement job rather than a large facilities programme.
