Summary of the contracting process

Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust commissioned services and fees connected with a full planning application for Cirencester Hospital. The requirement covers approval plans, working drawings and specifications, supporting the preparation and submission of the hospital’s planning application. It falls within professional planning and architectural design support rather than construction works or the supply of goods. Delivery is associated with Cirencester Hospital in the South West of England, with the buying organisation based in Gloucester. The requirement is relevant to firms that provide planning application support, architectural drawings, technical specifications and related professional services for healthcare or public-sector estates projects.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 4 May 2026 at 12:00, and the contract was awarded on 5 August 2026 to CONSTELLIA LIMITED. The awarded value was £123,252.54. The contract period runs from 9 May 2026 to 11 June 2028. The procurement was classified as a services requirement and was identified as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises but suitable for voluntary, community and social enterprises. No separate lot structure or detailed scoring criteria is recorded. The award is active.

Although this contract has already been awarded, it provides a clear benchmark for suppliers targeting similar work for Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. A credible competitor would need to deliver full planning application support, including approval plans, working drawings and technical specifications, and understand the requirements of a hospital or healthcare estate. Experience of coordinating professional planning and design outputs for a public-sector client would strengthen a future offer. The route to market is significant: the buyer used a framework call-off, so relevant firms should consider whether they hold suitable framework positions or can participate through framework partners. Voluntary, community and social enterprises were considered suitable, while the procurement was not aimed at SMEs.
