Summary of the contracting process

Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust procured design and cost consultancy services for its LMER programme. The work supports the replacement of X-ray machines in four rooms, including the external design consultancy and cost management needed to deliver the project. This is a construction consultancy service, covering the design and financial management of an NHS equipment and room replacement scheme. Delivery is in London, at the Trust's site in the SE1 9RT area. The requirement is relevant to firms providing healthcare capital-project design advice, medical imaging-room planning, construction consultancy or cost management, particularly those able to work with NHS clients and coordinate the replacement of equipment across several clinical rooms.

This procurement is complete and was awarded on 1 March 2026 to Rider Levett Bucknall UK Limited. The award value is £83,000, while the procurement's stated value is £83,205.50, with a minimum value of £83,000; all amounts are in GBP. The contract runs from 1 March 2026 to 31 March 2027. It was awarded through a selective call-off from the ESPO Property, Building and Infrastructure Advice & Management Services Framework, rather than through an open standalone competition. The tender submission deadline was 28 February 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The requirement covers one service package for the four X-ray rooms, and the published suitability assessment did not identify it as reserved for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For a supplier that did not win this award, the procurement demonstrates a defined NHS demand for specialist consultancy around replacing diagnostic imaging equipment in multiple rooms. A credible competitor would need to combine healthcare design capability with professional cost management, understand the interfaces between clinical environments, building works and X-ray equipment, and manage delivery for a public-sector health client. Experience coordinating a multi-room replacement programme and producing reliable cost advice would be directly relevant. The route used here also shows the commercial importance of access to the ESPO property, building and infrastructure advice framework, or to a comparable approved public-sector purchasing route. Larger consultancies may be better placed for the stated scale, as the opportunity was not assessed as suitable for SMEs.
