Summary of the contracting process

United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust procured Quantity Surveyor services for an acute floor project. The requirement falls within building consultancy services and sits within the wider professional quantity surveying and cost-management market. Delivery is in the East Midlands, supporting the Trust’s estate and healthcare infrastructure needs. The named buyer is United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, based in Lincoln. The requirement is therefore relevant to quantity surveying practices, building consultancies and professional services firms with experience of advising public healthcare organisations on acute hospital or similar complex building projects. It is focused on consultancy expertise rather than construction delivery, materials supply or general facilities management.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Pulse Associates Limited on 20 July 2026. The award value is £150,000, within an estimated procurement range of £110,000 to £150,000. The contract runs from 20 July 2026 to 31 March 2030. It was a selective procedure using a call-off from a framework agreement, with submissions due by 22 June 2026 at noon. The contract was awarded on the basis of the completed framework call-off process. The opportunity was classified as a services contract for building consultancy and quantity surveying work. The selected supplier is Pulse Associates Limited, an SME based in Nottingham.

This award demonstrates sustained demand from United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust for specialist quantity surveying support on acute healthcare estate work. A competitor preparing for a future requirement from this buyer would need access to the relevant framework and the capacity to deliver professional building consultancy services over a substantial multi-year engagement. Credibility would depend on demonstrable quantity surveying capability, strong cost planning and commercial control, and the ability to work within a complex NHS client environment. Firms should also be able to support acute-floor or comparable hospital development projects, coordinate effectively with public-sector estates teams and maintain consistent service delivery at the scale implied by a long-term Trust appointment. The procurement was not identified as suitable for SMEs.
