Summary of the contracting process

The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust procured refurbishment works for the rear store room and lobby serving its ITU facilities. The requirement covers refurbishment activity within the hospital estate, rather than the supply of standalone goods. The work is classified as refurbishment work and falls within the services category. Delivery is at the Trust’s site in the East of England, in the CM20 1QX area. The named buying organisation is The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust, based in Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire. The requirement was procured as a specific call-off for the hospital’s ITU rear store room and lobby, so businesses with experience of refurbishment in operational healthcare or other occupied public-sector environments will find the subject matter most relevant.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded. The Trust used a selective procedure as a call-off from the SBS HPCCAS Framework SBS10190. The tender submission deadline was 10 August 2026 at 12:00. The estimated value was between £30,000 and £40,000. The contract was awarded on 14 August 2026 to R&B Refurbishment (Skafftec Ltd) for £35,000. The awarded contract period runs from 17 August 2026 to 9 October 2026. The evaluation resulted in an active award to the named supplier. The process was not divided into lots. The procurement records the requirement as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises, although the appointed supplier is identified as an SME.

For a supplier assessing future hospital refurbishment work, this award demonstrates demand for focused internal works in an ITU setting, covering functional back-of-house and public-facing areas within a healthcare estate. A credible competitor would need to deliver refurbishment safely around clinical operations, manage access and disruption, and coordinate work across store-room and lobby environments. Relevant experience of NHS, hospital or similarly controlled occupied buildings would strengthen a future qualification. The appointed business is identified as an SME, showing that a smaller refurbishment specialist was able to secure and deliver this requirement through a framework route. Businesses seeking comparable work should therefore understand framework call-off procedures and be able to evidence reliable delivery of modest, tightly defined refurbishment packages.
