Summary of the contracting process

NHS Fife procured winter maintenance services for Zone 4, covering the Kirkcaldy central areas. The work is seasonal maintenance to be carried out in line with the buyer’s specification. The requirement is for one supplier to deliver the service across this zone. The tender also classifies the requirement under winter-maintenance materials and grounds maintenance services (CPV 44113910 and 77314000). NHS Fife is the buying organisation; the supplier’s delivery location is the Zone 4 area identified as Kirkcaldy central areas.

The procurement has been awarded: OUTCO Limited was selected, with an award value of £20,817. The award date and contract period are not stated in the available process details. The requirement described a service period from October 2026 to March 2027, with an option to extend into April 2027 if local weather conditions required. This was a quotation process, with one supplier intended for the zone; five bids were recorded. Bidders were asked for a completed pricing schedule and a proposal setting out mobilisation times, resources and capacity to meet the specification. A single purchase order was to cover the full service period, with its reference included on invoices.

This award indicates demand from NHS Fife for a supplier able to provide winter maintenance across the Kirkcaldy central areas. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need relevant winter-maintenance experience and the operational capacity to mobilise and deliver the specified service across the zone. The buyer specifically sought evidence of mobilisation times, available resources and capacity, alongside a priced response, so suppliers should be able to plan deployment and cost the service clearly. The requirement is a defined, seasonal service rather than a broad grounds-maintenance contract; relevant capability is practical delivery of winter maintenance in response to the buyer’s specification and local conditions. Five bids were recorded, indicating competition for this requirement.
