## Summary

Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust procured servicing and maintenance of its air handling units (AHUs), including planned preventive maintenance, reactive repairs and compliance testing. The requirement also covered specialised ventilation systems. This is facilities engineering and ventilation maintenance work supporting the Trust’s healthcare estate. The listed delivery regions are broad UK regions rather than named sites, so the notice does not identify specific delivery locations. The buyer is Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust, based in Amersham and Aylesbury. The scope combines routine maintenance with fault response and testing against compliance requirements, making relevant experience in healthcare ventilation systems and the ability to service both general and specialised equipment pertinent to this buyer’s requirement.

The procurement is complete and awarded. The Trust used a limited procedure without a prior call for competition, through an NHS-approved LPP dynamic purchasing system for air handling units, filters, ventilation and extraction maintenance. The stated rationale was that the procurement fell outside the scope of the directive. The single lot was cancelled, although the award is recorded as active and the contract as active. Ventilation Surveys and Service was named as the awarded supplier. The contract value is £150,920, and it was signed on 15 September 2026. No contract end date or duration is stated. Evaluation was on price alone. Five bids were recorded for the lot. The contract covers the maintenance, repairs and compliance testing described above.

For suppliers assessing this buyer’s future ventilation maintenance requirements, this award indicates demand for a combined service covering planned preventive maintenance, reactive repairs and compliance testing across AHUs and specialised ventilation systems. A credible competitor would need the technical workforce and service capability to maintain both general and specialist systems, respond to faults and carry out compliance tests. The route used was an NHS-approved dynamic purchasing system focused on air handling, filters, ventilation and extraction maintenance, so relevant suppliers would need to be positioned to compete through that purchasing arrangement. The award went to an SME, showing that the requirement was delivered by a small or medium-sized supplier rather than necessarily requiring a large contractor. Price was the sole stated evaluation basis, so cost competitiveness matters alongside the ability to meet the full technical scope.
