UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured a six-month hire of an external body storage facility. The requirement is a storage service, intended to provide additional capacity for the storage of bodies outside the hospital’s existing facilities. The contract’s delivery location is Cambridge, England. This is a focused, time-limited requirement for a supplier able to provide an external facility and the associated storage service; it is not a general construction or equipment purchase.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to LEEC Limited. The Trust used a below-threshold procurement route; the specific method is recorded as unknown. There was one lot, covering the external body storage hire. The contract was signed on 15 October 2026 and runs from 20 October 2026 to 19 April 2027. Its net value is £51,275 and its gross value, including tax, is £61,530. The award is active, and the contract is active. The published information does not set out evaluation criteria or participation requirements.

For suppliers seeking to compete for a similar requirement from Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, the relevant capability is providing an external body-storage facility for a defined period and supporting the service reliably. The award shows that the Trust has bought this as a standalone storage service through a below-threshold route, rather than as a wider works package. A credible competitor would need suitable storage capacity, the ability to meet the Trust’s operational needs for body storage, and the capacity to mobilise and deliver the hire over a time-limited contract. LEEC Limited, recorded as an SME, won this requirement, demonstrating that a specialist small or medium-sized supplier can serve the Trust’s need.
