## Summary

The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust procured medical air plant upgrade works at its site in Harlow, CM20 1QX. The work covers replacing equipment, installation, testing and commissioning of the upgraded medical air plant in accordance with HTM 02-01. This is specialist healthcare engineering work to maintain medical air services in a hospital environment, rather than a general building-services project. The procurement was made through a framework call-off. The requirement is for a defined plant upgrade, not a broad or ongoing facilities-management service.

The procurement is complete and K&H Medical was selected for the contract. The award was made on 1 October 2026, for £42,000. The contract period runs from 1 October to 31 December 2026. The estimated procurement value was £40,000–£42,000. The Trust used a selective process, placing a call-off from a framework agreement, specifically SBS10166, Lot 9.1. The tender deadline was 30 September 2026 at 12:00. The work was categorised as works, and the Trust marked it unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award information identifies the selected supplier and contract value; no separate scoring or evaluation criteria are described.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates demand from The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust for specialist medical-air plant replacement and commissioning, delivered to HTM 02-01. A credible competitor would need the technical expertise and workforce to replace medical air equipment safely in an operating healthcare setting, complete installation and testing, and provide commissioning in line with the required healthcare technical standard. Experience of comparable hospital medical-gas or medical-air plant upgrades would be directly relevant. The buyer used a framework call-off route and marked the opportunity unsuitable for SMEs, indicating that suppliers should be positioned to qualify and compete through the relevant framework and to deliver a focused, complete upgrade rather than isolated equipment supply.
