The procurement activity is currently in the planning stage, and while the project is classified under construction work (CPV code 45000000), it does not signify the commencement of a formal procurement process at this time.

This project presents significant growth opportunities for construction firms, particularly those specialised in hospital facilities, civil engineering, and building completion services.

By engaging with the Trust, potential developers can shape the project’s design and delivery approach while exploring possibilities for adjacent land acquisition from Kent County Council and Canterbury City Council. This engagement will allow businesses to provide feedback and indicate their interest in future procurement activities linked to the hospital extension.
