## Summary

Somerset NHS Foundation Trust commissioned works to replace existing fibre washer insert isolation valves with new union-jointed, lever-operated isolation valves. The scope included surveying the existing installation, supplying and installing the replacement valves, modifying pipework, providing fittings and reinstating insulation. The work covered the Jubilee Building at Musgrove Park Hospital in Taunton, Somerset. This is a building-services and water-plumbing requirement within an operational NHS hospital environment, focused on improving or renewing isolation-valve installations rather than general construction. The awarded requirement was classified as works, with the associated activity described as water plumbing work. Businesses relevant to this opportunity include engineering and mechanical-services contractors able to undertake valve replacement, pipework alterations, associated fittings and insulation as one coordinated package.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. Somerset NHS Foundation Trust selected R.T.S. Engineering (Somerset) Limited. The award was made on 16 September 2026 and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract runs from 16 September 2026 to 15 September 2027, with a six-month optional extension that could extend the period to 15 March 2028. Its value is £258,226.62 excluding VAT and £309,871.94 including VAT. There was one completed lot and one active award. The process used a limited procurement method, rather than an open competition, under the legal basis identified as the Procurement Act 2023. The requirement was below the relevant threshold.

For suppliers that did not win this contract, the award provides a clear indication of Somerset NHS Foundation Trust’s demand for planned mechanical and plumbing works in hospital buildings. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to manage the full valve-replacement package: surveying existing services, selecting and supplying suitable union-jointed lever-operated isolation valves, installing them, modifying connected pipework, fitting associated components and reinstating insulation. The work also points to the importance of delivering coordinated activity within a healthcare estate, where accurate surveys, controlled installation and reliable isolation of services are central to the outcome. Engineering firms with established hospital or complex-building work practices, and sufficient capability to deliver a substantial single-site package, are likely to be best placed to compete when this type of requirement returns.
