Summary of the contracting process

Northumbria Healthcare Facilities Management commissioned a review of design information for the New Berwick Hospital. The work is construction-related consultancy, linked to the Healthcare Planning, Construction Consultancy and Ancillary Services framework. Delivery is associated with postcode NE27 0QJ in the United Kingdom. The requirement centres on examining design information for a new hospital project, rather than building works or the supply of goods. It is relevant to consultancies with experience reviewing design material in a healthcare construction context and familiarity with hospital development projects.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Desco (Design & Consultancy) Limited on 15 September 2026. The award value is £90,000. The contract period ran from 1 May to 1 July 2026. The requirement was procured as a selective call-off from a framework agreement, with a tender submission deadline of 30 April 2026 at noon. The estimated tender value was also £90,000. This was a single requirement, not divided into lots. The procurement data records no award evaluation criteria or specific eligibility conditions, so the basis on which competing framework suppliers were assessed is not established here.

The award demonstrates demand from Northumbria Healthcare Facilities Management for specialist review of design information on a hospital project, delivered through its healthcare planning and construction consultancy framework. A credible competitor when this requirement returns would need to show the technical ability to scrutinise design information and relevant experience in healthcare construction consultancy, particularly hospital schemes. The work was of a defined consultancy scale and was bought through a framework call-off, so suppliers would need suitable framework access as well as the capacity to deliver a focused review. The selected supplier is identified as a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that a supplier of this scale was able to deliver the awarded requirement.
