Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Smartscan Service at St. Albans Hospital" project has been completed by the West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. This initiative falls under the industry category of lighting systems and is located in the United Kingdom. The award stage was reached on 1st April 2026, with the contract set to commence on 25th April 2026 and conclude on 24th April 2027. The procurement method utilised was selective, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender's value is recorded at £15,000 GBP, while the awarded contract amounts to £14,200 GBP.

This tender offers growth opportunities for businesses involved in lighting systems, particularly those already part of relevant framework agreements, given the selective procurement method. Large-scale companies such as F W Thorpe Plc, trading as Thorlux Lighting, who have been awarded this contract, exemplify the type of business well-positioned to compete. As the contract does not specifically suit SMEs or voluntary community and social enterprises (VCSEs), companies with significant resources to manage and deliver complex lighting solutions are likely to benefit most from similar opportunities.
