Summary of the contracting process

Barnsley Hospital NHS Foundation Trust procured consultancy services for the Barnsley Urgent Treatment Centre project in Barnsley. The appointed lead consultant is responsible for providing, managing and coordinating a fully integrated multidisciplinary design team. The work falls within architectural, construction, engineering and inspection consultancy services (CPV 71000000), with the principal focus on leading design coordination for an urgent treatment centre. The requirement is for professional services rather than construction delivery or the supply of goods. It is relevant to architectural practices, engineering consultancies and multidisciplinary built-environment firms able to act as lead consultant on a healthcare capital project and coordinate the range of design disciplines needed for delivery at the Trust’s Barnsley site.

This procurement has been awarded and the process is complete. Jefferson Sheard Architects was selected on 11 September 2026 for an award of £739,800. The contract period runs from 28 July 2026 to 30 September 2028. The Trust used a selective procedure, with the contract called off from a framework agreement. The requirement was treated as a services contract and was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award concerns a single consultancy requirement rather than separately described lots. The successful supplier is Jefferson Sheard Architects. The procurement therefore records an established appointment for the Barnsley Urgent Treatment Centre design consultancy, rather than an opportunity for new submissions.

This award is commercially relevant to firms targeting NHS estate development and healthcare design consultancy. It demonstrates demand for a lead consultant able to take responsibility for a fully integrated multidisciplinary design team, manage coordination across architectural, construction, engineering and inspection inputs, and support the development of an urgent treatment centre for a hospital trust. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need strong healthcare project capability, an established multidisciplinary delivery model and the capacity to manage design interfaces, programme coordination and professional responsibility across the team. The procurement route also indicates that framework access can be important for reaching this buyer, while the scale and complexity favour organisations with sufficient resources to lead a substantial public healthcare consultancy assignment.
