Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust commissioned refurbishment works for an ITU dirty utility area. The requirement is classified as refurbishment work and forms part of the Trust’s hospital facilities. Delivery is in the East of England, at postcode CM20 1QX. The work is intended to refurbish the dirty utility within the intensive treatment unit, rather than provide general facilities management or supplies. The procurement is for works, with the hospital Trust acting as the buying organisation. The selected supplier, R&B Refurbishment (Skafftec Ltd), is based in London and is identified as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The requirement was procured through the NHS SBS Hard FM Framework SBS10166.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective call-off from the SBS Hard FM Framework, rather than an open competition. The tender deadline was 8 July 2026 at 12 noon. The estimated contract value was between £50,000 and £60,000, while the award value was £52,000. The contract was awarded to R&B Refurbishment (Skafftec Ltd) on 4 August 2026. The contract period runs from 17 August 2026 to 9 October 2026. The award is active and the tender status is complete. The procurement was marked as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises, despite the appointed supplier being recorded as an SME.

For a future requirement of this type, a credible competitor would need practical refurbishment capability in a live healthcare environment, with particular experience of dirty utility areas within intensive treatment units or comparable hospital settings. The work indicates demand for contractors able to manage a defined clinical-area refurbishment rather than broad facilities management. Access to the relevant NHS SBS Hard FM Framework, or a route into any successor arrangement, would be important because this buyer used a framework call-off and a selective process. A suitable business would also need the project management, site coordination, health and safety, infection-control awareness and specialist trades required to complete hospital refurbishment work to the Trust’s standards.
