Summary of the contracting process

Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust procured building installation works to fit bump rails and bed-head protection. The requirement is described as “Bump Rails and Bed Head Protection” for GHC, with delivery in the GL3 4AW area of Gloucestershire. This is a focused, practical installation requirement associated with protecting beds and surrounding areas in a healthcare setting. The procurement category is works, specifically building installation. The buyer is the NHS foundation trust serving Gloucestershire.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Constellia Public Ltd. The award was made on 15 October 2026, for £64,020.41. The contract period runs from 25 September to 20 November 2026. The trust used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The original estimated value was also £64,020.41, and bids were due by 24 September 2026. No lots are identified, so the requirement was handled as a single package. Small and medium-sized businesses were considered suitable to take part; the award record does not state the evaluation criteria or explain how bids were scored.

This award demonstrates demand from Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust for installation of bump rails and bed-head protection in its healthcare estate. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to deliver this type of building installation reliably in a clinical environment, coordinating work around beds and the spaces in which care is provided. The requirement was handled through a framework call-off, so suppliers seeking comparable work with this buyer would need access to an appropriate framework route as well as relevant installation capability. The successful supplier was identified as an SME, indicating that this package was within the scale of a smaller business. The award provides a concrete example of the buyer’s purchasing need and the kind of specialist installation work it has commissioned.
