Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured fire safety engineering advice and site visits to support fire-related projects and the Building Safety Regulator (BSR) application process. This is a professional services requirement covering technical advice and visits rather than the supply of equipment. The work is for the Trust and is delivered in Gloucester, with the location recorded at Victoria Warehouse, GL1 2EL, within the South West of England. It is relevant to fire engineering consultancies and specialist safety advisers able to assess fire safety matters, advise on project requirements and support regulatory applications. The requirement is NHS-related and may suit firms familiar with working around occupied healthcare premises, clinical environments and public-sector project governance.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 31 July 2026 at 12:00. The contract runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 March 2027, with an estimated and awarded value of £15,300. The award was made on 3 September 2026 to Constellia Limited, a small or medium-sized enterprise, at £15,300. The award is active and covers the same contract period. The opportunity was identified as suitable for SMEs and as a services contract. The selected supplier is responsible for providing the fire safety engineering advice and site visits supporting fire projects and the BSR application process for Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

For a supplier assessing future demand, this award shows that Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust buys focused fire safety engineering support through a framework call-off, including site-based advice and assistance with BSR applications. A credible competitor would need qualified fire engineering capability, practical experience of inspecting or visiting sites, and the ability to turn findings into clear technical advice for live projects. Experience with the Building Safety Regulator application process would be directly relevant. Firms should also be able to work within NHS governance, coordinate with hospital estates and project teams, and provide proportionate support on a relatively focused assignment. SME suitability indicates that specialist consultancies with sufficient technical capacity can compete alongside larger professional services providers.
