Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "PAHT - NHP Architect Services" was managed by the West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, which is based in Welwyn Garden City, United Kingdom. This process falls under the architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services category, with a specific focus on providing architect services. The procurement followed a selective method as a call-off from a framework agreement, and it has reached the award stage. The contract period runs from 1st July 2026 to 31st March 2027, with the awarding decision published on 28th July 2026. The location of services is centred in the East of England, and the total value of the award amounts to GBP 230,877.

This tender creates significant opportunities for businesses in the architectural and civil engineering sector, particularly those experienced in framework agreements. Although the procurement was concluded through a selective process, it provides insights into the types of projects available within the NHS Trusts and how businesses can align themselves to be considered for future opportunities. Companies like Gilling Dod Limited, who are already operating at a small and medium enterprise (SME) scale, have successfully engaged as suppliers, highlighting the potential for similarly scaled businesses to explore growth through public sector contracts. Such businesses should focus on building relationships within NHS framework agreements to enhance their competitiveness in this field.
