Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the project titled "B96 Design services" involves the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (Defra) as the buying organisation. This tender, classified under the industry category "Architectural design services" (CPV code 71220000), focuses on the refurbishment, reconfiguration, and extension of the B96 Laboratories complex in the South East region of the United Kingdom. The procurement method used was a selective process under a framework agreement. The tender reached the award stage, with significant dates including the contract period from 23 September 2024 to 30 October 2025. The project aims to ensure the continuity of critical Pathology and Laboratory functions, contributing to site logistics re-modelling at the APHA facilities in postal code KT15 3NB. The award amount is £99,508.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in architectural and design services, particularly those experienced in complex laboratory and healthcare facility projects. Although this specific contract does not emphasise suitability for SMEs or VCSEs, larger organisations or those with robust capabilities in architectural refurbishment will find this an ideal fit. The awarded supplier, Baker Hicks Limited, indicates the level of expertise and specialisation expected for such high-stake projects. Companies that can deliver innovative design solutions while managing logistical constraints effectively would be well-positioned to compete for similar future opportunities.

Notice Information

Notice Title

B96 Design services

Notice Description

To ensure continuity of critical business, Pathology, TSE Reference Laboratory and Animal By-Products Reference Laboratory (Feed Testing) capability, APHA requires the refurbishment, reconfiguration and extension of B96 Laboratories complex inclusive of the following buildings: B96, B96a, B96b, B96c, B96d, generator and small associated structures. This will include the movement of Pathology functions from B97 to B96, to increase team resilience and interoperability, to enable SCAH enabling works and site logistics re-modelling. As a key constraint, Pathology science functions are required in this complex until SCAH Science Hubs are delivered. Additionally, it will provide a replacement for B150. Building 96 needs to fulfil the requirements of Pathology building 150, that will be demolished to release space for the new HUB, as part of SCAH site re-modelling.
