What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionNHS Wales Shared Services Partnership (NWSSP) All-Wales Laundry Service (AWLS) has awarded a contract for the replacement of the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and associated software controlling the Continuous Batch Washer (CBW) at the Llansamlet Laundry Production Unit, Swansea.
The contract includes the survey and mapping of existing panel I/O and wiring configurations, supply and installation of a replacement PLC, provision of compatible software interfaces, and integration with existing machine control programmes. The works also encompass integration with associated press PLCs and sorting systems, commissioning of the completed installation, and delivery of training for operational personnel.
Due to the operationally critical nature of the laundry facility, which processes approximately 35,000 linen items per day, all implementation activities will be undertaken outside of normal production hours to minimise disruption to service delivery. The contract provides for the full delivery, installation, testing, commissioning, training and handover of the replacement control system, ensuring the continued safe and reliable operation of the Continuous Batch Washer and associated equipment.
