Summary of the contracting process

NHS Property Services Limited procured construction consultancy services for the Guildford SARC project. The appointed supplier’s stated scope covers architectural services under the framework’s architecture lot, and project management, quantity surveying and principal designer services under its multi-disciplinary lot. Delivery is associated with postcode GU3 1LR in Guildford. The requirement therefore brings together design and project delivery oversight, cost management and principal designer responsibilities for a specific property project. The buyer is NHS Property Services Limited, based in Stockport. The procurement was categorised as services, with construction consultancy as the service type.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. NHS Property Services used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. West Sussex (Worthing) Limited was appointed for the stated architectural, project management, quantity surveying and principal designer services. The award date was 23 October 2026, and the contract runs from 23 October 2026 to 31 October 2027. The awarded value is £553,326.67. The tender submission deadline was 26 August 2026 at 5pm. The appointment covers two framework lots: architecture and multi-disciplinary services. The published information does not set out the evaluation criteria or how bids were scored.

This award shows that NHS Property Services buys bundled property consultancy for individual healthcare-related projects, using framework call-offs rather than a standalone open competition. A credible competitor for this specific requirement would need to bring architectural capability alongside project management, quantity surveying and principal designer expertise, either in-house or through a well-integrated team. The successful supplier was an SME, and the procurement was marked as suitable for SMEs, indicating that this scale and multidisciplinary scope can be delivered by a smaller business. Firms with experience coordinating design, programme, cost and design-risk responsibilities on property projects are best placed to match the appointed supplier’s offer when this buyer next requires comparable services. The work is concentrated on a single Guildford project rather than a broad, multi-site service.
