Summary of the contracting process

The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust procured additional and extra-over works for the lower-ground-floor staff toilets at the Princess Alexandra Hospital. The requirement is a flooring services package, focused on solid flooring, covering the works needed in the staff WC area. It falls within hard facilities management services and was sourced through the Hard Facilities Management 2 framework, flooring services lot. The work is for the hospital’s lower-ground-floor facilities rather than a general supply of flooring products. Businesses relevant to this requirement include flooring contractors and hard facilities management providers able to carry out refurbishment or remedial flooring works in a healthcare setting. The buying organisation is The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust, based in Welwyn Garden City, and the delivery site is the Princess Alexandra Hospital.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded following a selective call-off from a framework agreement, using a direct award route. The estimated procurement value was between £10,200 and £12,500, excluding any different treatment of the final award amount. The contract was awarded on 4 September 2026 to R&B Refurbishment (Skafftec Ltd) for £11,083.59. The contract period runs from 17 September 2026 to 31 December 2026. The award covers the lower-ground-floor staff WC flooring works at the hospital. The award was made through the existing Hard Facilities Management 2 framework, under its flooring services category. The selected supplier is recorded as an SME. The procurement was evaluated and concluded through the framework’s call-off and direct-award arrangements rather than an open competition for this individual requirement.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates a buyer’s demand for small-scale flooring refurbishment and additional works within hospital staff facilities. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical solid-flooring capability, experience delivering extra-over or remedial works, and the ability to work safely and reliably in an NHS hospital environment. The relevant route is a hard facilities management framework, specifically a flooring services category, so suppliers would need appropriate framework access or a position within an equivalent compliant purchasing route. The successful provider’s SME status shows that the work can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only a national facilities management business. Relevant strengths include accurate site assessment, coordination with hospital operations, quality installation and dependable completion of WC refurbishment works.
