UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

University Hospitals Dorset NHS Foundation Trust is procuring maintenance and repair services for fire dampers across all of its estate locations. The work is intended to keep fire dampers in serviceable condition across the Trust’s estate. This is a fire-safety maintenance service opportunity, rather than a purchase of fire-protection equipment or a construction project. The Trust is the buying organisation, based in Poole, and the delivery locations are within the United Kingdom. The requirement is grouped as a single lot, covering the stated estate-wide service rather than separate geographic or service packages.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure. The procurement was presented as one lot. The estimated value is £370,000 excluding VAT (£444,000 including VAT). The contract period is 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2032. The buyer set 27 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC as both the deadline for enquiries and the deadline for bid submissions. The stated deadline for the award decision is 21 December 2026. Evaluation gives price a 60% weighting and quality 40%. Economic and technical selection criteria apply; their descriptions refer bidders to the invitation-to-tender documentation.

The requirement is suited to suppliers able to maintain and repair fire dampers across a healthcare estate. The single-lot, estate-wide scope favours a contractor able to organise service delivery across the Trust’s locations, rather than a supplier whose offer is limited to one site or the supply of equipment alone. Small and medium-sized enterprises are identified as suitable to participate. Bids are assessed on both price and quality, so suppliers should be prepared to demonstrate the quality of their proposed service as well as competitive pricing. Economic and technical selection criteria also apply.
