Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust commissioned a healthcare planning requirement, described as project management consultancy services. The work is titled “WHTHT - NHP Healthcare Planner” and was delivered for the Trust in the East of England, with a delivery address in the WD18 0HB area. The requirement was awarded under the SBS HPCCAS framework, Lot 9. Its focus is therefore consultancy support for healthcare planning and associated project management, rather than the supply of physical goods, despite the procurement category being recorded as goods. Businesses relevant to this requirement would be consultancies providing healthcare planning, programme or project management support to NHS organisations and other healthcare bodies.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 30 September 2024 at 12 noon. The estimated procurement range was £600,000 to £850,000, and the contract was awarded to WSP UK LIMITED for £848,854. The award date was 13 July 2026. The contract period runs from 1 October 2024 to 30 June 2027. West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust is the buying organisation. The award was made under SBS HPCCAS reference SBS10190, Lot 9. The selected supplier is recorded as a large organisation, and the opportunity was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates demand from West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust for substantial healthcare planning and project management consultancy delivered through a framework call-off. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need demonstrable capability in healthcare planning and project management consultancy, together with the organisational capacity to deliver a large NHS consultancy engagement. Access to the relevant SBS HPCCAS framework route would also be important, since this requirement was awarded as a framework call-off rather than through an open standalone competition. The recorded outcome indicates that the buyer selected a large consultancy, so suppliers should be able to evidence comparable scale, resources and delivery experience.
