## Summary

The procurement process initiated by Somerset NHS Foundation Trust involves the design, supply, installation, and commissioning of a 1250 kVA diesel standby generator, along with a 60,000 L fuel tank for the Surgical Centre at Musgrove Park Hospital in Taunton, United Kingdom. This falls under the industry category of electrical installation work, specifically focusing on generators. The contract was awarded and signed on 26 February 2026, with the project set to start on 27 February 2026 and conclude by 27 April 2026. The procurement method was direct, below threshold and carried out without competition, and the procurement stage is noted as complete.
