Summary of the contracting process

Whittington Health NHS Trust commissioned landscaping works to create a new outdoor sanctuary garden within an existing courtyard at Whittington Hospital on Magdala Avenue, London. The project involves constructing an external garden space in a hospital setting. The work is landscaping and construction, rather than the supply of goods or ongoing grounds maintenance.

The procurement is complete and Carmelcrest Limited was selected for the contract. The award was made on 6 October 2026. The awarded value is £399,021.63. The contract period runs from 4 January to 5 March 2027. The Trust procured the works through a competitive mini-competition under a public-sector construction works framework. The tender submission deadline was 8 June 2026 at noon. The published information describes the project and procurement route but does not set out the evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility requirements.

This award demonstrates demand from Whittington Health NHS Trust for a substantial, site-specific landscaping and construction project in a live hospital environment. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to deliver the construction of an external courtyard garden, with the capacity to coordinate work within hospital grounds. The procurement was run as a competitive mini-competition under a public-sector construction works framework, so suppliers would need access to the relevant framework route to compete on the same basis. The selected supplier was an SME, although the procurement was marked as unsuitable for SMEs; this makes the award evidence of delivery by a small business, not evidence that the Trust formally targeted SME participation.
