Fuel Storage Infrastructure Replacement and Associated Services Framework

The South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust (SWAST) is seeking to establish a multi-supplier closed Framework Agreement for the provision of fuel storage infrastructure replacement and associated services across the Trust estate. Up to four (4) suppliers will be appointed to the Framework for a period of four (4) years. The scope of the Framework includes, but is not limited to, the design, supply, delivery, installation, commissioning, decommissioning, removal and disposal of fuel storage infrastructure, associated civil engineering works, fuel management system integration, environmental protection measures and all ancillary works necessary to deliver compliant fuel storage installations. As part of this procurement, SWAST intends to award an initial call-off contract for the replacement of the existing fuel storage installation at Swindon Ambulance Station. Future requirements may be awarded through either direct award or further competition between appointed Framework Suppliers. No guarantee is given regarding the number, frequency or value of future call-off contracts awarded under the Framework. The estimated total value of the Framework over its four-year term is £1,120,000 including VAT. This value is provided as an estimate only and does not constitute a guarantee of future expenditure. This procurement is being conducted as an Open Procedure in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023. The anticipated contract commencement date is 1 October 2026. Interested suppliers should review the procurement documentation available via the Trust's e-tendering portal and submit their tender response in accordance with the published procurement timetable.
