Summary of the contracting process

The Royal Papworth Hospital in Cambridge has completed the procurement process for "PFI Accountancy Support" under the Financial consultancy services category. This procurement, valued at GBP 38,434.50, was conducted through a call-off from the ESPO Framework (Reference 664-21). The award was made on 18th December 2024, with the service period scheduled from 18th December 2024 to 31st March 2025. This competition, specifically targeting Financial consultancy services (CPV code 66171000), was conducted using the selective procurement method, following a framework agreement.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses in the financial consultancy field, especially those capable of providing comprehensive accounting support linked to financial reporting under PFI agreements. Large-scale consultancy firms, such as the awarded supplier Grant Thornton UK LLP, are well-suited to compete in such tenders due to their capacity and expertise in handling complex financial services. However, the procurement primarily targets larger entities as it does not specify suitability for SMEs or VCSEs.
