Summary of the contracting process

The West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust is responsible for the procurement process for the "WHTHT - Fire Compartmentation Surveys" project. This initiative, classified under the industry category of safety consultancy services, involves conducting fire compartmentation surveys and reviewing site drawings. The procurement method chosen is selective, executed via a call-off from a framework agreement. The process has reached the award stage, with a contract signed on 7 December 2025, to last until 6 December 2027. While the tender period closed on 1 December 2025, the award was published on 16 December 2025. Activities will occur primarily within the United Kingdom, specifically targeting locations under postal code WD18 0HB.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for companies specialising in safety consultancy services, particularly those with expertise in fire safety and compartmentation assessments. Although not suited for SMEs or VCSEs, larger enterprises with experience in handling framework agreements will find this project lucrative, given its substantial contract value of £144,000. Topscan (UK) Limited, an SME, was awarded the contract. Businesses offering comprehensive safety consultation and drawing amendment services might consider bidding on similar projects for future procurement endeavours facilitated by NHS Trusts, which can foster business growth by aligning with prevalent healthcare infrastructure needs.
