NHS QEUH Roofing Maintenance

NHS GREATER GLASGOW AND CLYDE

This public procurement record has 2 releases in its history.

Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde, a significant public health authority in the UK, has recently completed a procurement process for the maintenance of the Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) plastic roof at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow. This contract, titled "NHS QEUH Roofing Maintenance," falls within the health industry category and is centrally located in Glasgow. The procurement was executed under a limited method, specifically without the prior publication of a call for competition, due to the technical specificity of the service required. Vector Foiltec Limited, the awarded contractor, commenced the contract on 4th August 2025, achieving compliance with the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015. The contract will extend until 13th August 2030, ensuring sustained service and minimal disruption for the hospital.

This contract presents minimal opportunities for external businesses due to its specific requirements and direct award to Vector Foiltec Limited, the only company capable of fulfilling the unique technical demands of the ETFE roof maintenance. Businesses with expertise in specialised roofing maintenance materials, particularly for hospital or healthcare environments, might seek insights from such opportunities to tailor their services for future tenders with similar constraints. This procurement highlights the importance of niche expertise in gaining specialised contracts within the public sector. Although this is a limited competition process, such projects underline the value of developing specialised capabilities that are crucial for meeting stringent public sector standards and requirements.
