Summary of the contracting process

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is considering condensate recovery improvement works at Glasgow Royal Infirmary in Glasgow. The project is a works requirement intended to improve the hospital’s existing steam and condensate infrastructure. The expected scope includes replacing condensate recovery units, replacing steam traps, modifying associated steam and condensate pipework, and carrying out mechanical installation, testing and commissioning. Delivery will take place within a live acute hospital environment, so the work concerns operational healthcare premises rather than a standalone construction site. The requirement also covers the planning and management of system shutdowns and the integration of the improvements with existing steam infrastructure at the infirmary.

This procurement is at the planning stage: the buyer has stated an intention to procure and has not issued an invitation to tender. NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde expects to publish a future notice on 30 September 2026. The planned approach and procurement method have not been settled in the information available at this stage. The requirement is described as a single planned lot. No contract value, budget, contract duration, tender deadline or award criteria are set out. The buyer has presented the project for advance market awareness and reserves the right not to proceed with a later procurement exercise.

The project is suited to mechanical engineering and building-services contractors with specialist experience in steam and pressure systems. Relevant capability includes replacing condensate recovery units and steam traps, modifying steam and condensate pipework, completing mechanical installation, and undertaking testing and commissioning. Suppliers should be prepared to plan and manage shutdowns and to connect new or modified equipment to existing steam infrastructure. Experience of working safely and effectively in a live acute hospital environment would be particularly relevant, because the works must be integrated around operational healthcare facilities. Firms with the required specialist delivery capability can use the advance notice to prepare for a future procurement exercise.
