## Summary

The Southern Health and Social Care Trust (SHSCT) has concluded a procurement process for the maintenance of Lavatec & Vega laundry equipment within Craigavon Area Hospital, located in Portadown, Northern Ireland. The procurement falls under the industry category of repair and maintenance services (CPV code 50000000). This process has reached the award stage, with the contract being signed on 26th February 2025 for a total value of £60,000. The procurement, undertaken via a limited procedure, was awarded without prior publication of a call for competition, justified by the absence of competition on technical grounds and the sole supplier declaration.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in maintenance services, particularly those with expertise in specific equipment such as that produced by Lavatec and Vega. Companies with a strong track record in the health sector and experience in servicing high-tech laundry equipment would be well-suited to compete in similar procurements. The awarded supplier, Thomas Broadbent & Sons Ltd, a UK-based SME, highlights that smaller specialised firms can successfully secure contracts by leveraging their niche expertise.
