Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The East and North Hertfordshire Hospitals NHS Trust has successfully completed the procurement process for design consultancy services with the award of a contract to Ikon Architecture Limited. This contract encompasses the entire design lifecycle, covering RIBA Stages 0-6, and has been valued at £90,000. The procurement was conducted through a selective call-off from a framework agreement, aimed at addressing the design needs within the healthcare sector. The contract, having been awarded on 1 September 2025, began on 10 October 2025 and will conclude on 31 March 2026, with services to be delivered across various locations including the United Kingdom, Europe, and beyond. The trust’s headquarters are based in Welwyn Garden City, highlighting its local connection whilst also demonstrating a global reach.

This contract presents a substantial opportunity for businesses involved in design consultancy, particularly those capable of navigating healthcare industry requirements. Despite a direct award made through the framework agreement, it signals significant demand for specialised architectural services within the sector. Although the contract's suitability does not specifically target SMEs or VCSEs, firms with an established presence and expertise in the healthcare environment could expand their portfolio and enhance their reputation by engaging in such opportunities. Organisations that possess the technical skills required to fulfil complex design projects over an extended period in diverse geographical locations might find this contract beneficial for expanding their business footprint and business capability.
