## Summary

Somerset NHS Foundation Trust procured feminine hygiene services for its premises in Somerset. The requirement is a service contract covering the provision and ongoing delivery of feminine hygiene facilities and related servicing. The buyer is based at Musgrove Park Hospital in Taunton, and the service location is identified as Somerset. This is relevant to providers of managed feminine hygiene, washroom hygiene and associated facilities services, particularly those able to operate across NHS premises. The procurement concerns a defined service requirement for one public-sector healthcare buyer, rather than the supply of general cleaning products or standalone consumables. Suppliers with an established operational service model for feminine hygiene provision will find the subject matter directly aligned with their existing offer and customer base.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to S W Hygiene Limited. It used a direct award below the relevant threshold, without competition, and covered one lot. The contract was signed on 17 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2031. Its value is £48,034.21 excluding VAT and £57,641.05 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The selected supplier is an SME. The available procurement information identifies the requirement and the direct-award route, but does not set out a comparative evaluation or scored award basis. This outcome shows that the buyer has committed to a single provider for the full five-year service period.

This procurement demonstrates established demand from Somerset NHS Foundation Trust for a managed feminine hygiene service delivered across Somerset healthcare premises. A supplier considering the requirement when it next comes to market would need a service offer focused specifically on feminine hygiene provision, with the operational capacity to support one NHS trust over a multi-year arrangement. Credibility would come from dependable routine servicing, suitable equipment and consumables, responsive site support, and the ability to manage delivery consistently across the buyer’s estate. The successful supplier is an SME, indicating that the requirement can be served by a specialist provider rather than only by a large national facilities-management business. The direct-award route also shows the buyer has used a relatively simple purchasing approach for this service.
