Description

Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust (The Trust) has awarded a contract for ongoing servicing and maintenance of the uninterruptible power supply (UPS) and isolated power supply (IPS) systems across its main hospital sites: Nottingham City Hospital and the Queen's Medical Centre. The purpose of the Services is to ensure the Trust complies with Health Technical Memoranda (HTM) 06-01, with particular regard to requirements concerning tertiary power supplies. A copy of HTM 06-01 can be found via the link below: https://www.england.nhs.uk/publication/electrical-services-supply-and-distributi... The objective is to ensure the Trust's UPS/IPS systems work efficiently and effectively to provide a tertiary supply in the event of disruption to power at either site The Term is 24 months to 30 June 2026 with the option to extend for a further 36 months. This extension shall take the form of three 12 month incremental periods. Both the IPS and the UPS play a critical role in acting as the tertiary power supply, ensuring the reliability and safety of a hospital's electrical infrastructure. Together, these two components help to keep patients safe and provide continuity of care, even in the event of a power interruption. To ensure the UPS & IPS systems operate safely and reliably, the Trust requires a contractor to provide regular planned preventative maintenance to mitigate risks of faults or failures occurring as well as reactive maintenance services, such as call outs. A minor issue may have major consequences such as patient fatality as a result of loss of power during surgery.
