Summary of the contracting process

NHS Highland procured a supply of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), classified under CPV 09133000, for its Bannock and Strathspey, Aviemore and Broadfoot sites. This is a goods requirement rather than an installation, maintenance or construction contract. The buying organisation is NHS Highland, whose base is in Inverness. Delivery is within the NHS Highland area of Scotland, covering the named facilities. The requirement was placed as a call-off against the ESPO Liquefied Petroleum Gas and Bio LPG framework. It concerns the provision of fuel to support operations at NHS Highland locations, so relevant businesses are LPG producers, wholesalers, distributors and suppliers able to deliver reliably to multiple healthcare sites in the Scottish Highlands.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Flogas Britain Limited. It used an open procedure and was awarded against a framework, with one bid recorded for the single lot. The contract is active, valued at £56,446 GBP, and was signed on 31 July 2026. The award covers the supply of LPG to Bannock and Strathspey, Aviemore and Broadfoot for NHS Highland. The recorded outcome shows Flogas Britain Limited as the selected supplier. The procurement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. No separate award date or contract end date is recorded in the process, so the signed date is the relevant dated event available for the completed award.

For a supplier that did not win, this procurement demonstrates NHS Highland’s demand for delivered LPG across several operational sites in the Scottish Highlands and its use of a framework route for purchasing it. A credible competitor when this requirement next returns would need dependable access to LPG, robust storage and distribution arrangements, and the transport capability to serve Bannock and Strathspey, Aviemore and Broadfoot. It would also need to understand NHS Highland’s operational requirements and be able to manage consistent deliveries across dispersed locations. Experience of supplying public-sector customers, working through an established framework, and maintaining reliable service to healthcare facilities would strengthen a future bid. The single recorded bid indicates a focused competitive field for this requirement.
