Summary of the contracting process

The Christie NHS Foundation Trust procured architectural and principal designer services for refurbishment works to an aseptic suite and dispensary. The commission covers design stages 0 to 3, supporting the development of the refurbishment scheme rather than the physical construction works themselves. The work is for the Trust’s site on Wilmslow Road, Manchester, and relates to refurbishment work within a healthcare setting. Businesses relevant to this requirement include architectural practices and design consultants able to lead or support early-stage planning and design for technically controlled hospital facilities, including aseptic and pharmacy environments. The scope is focused on the Trust’s requirements for its Manchester facilities and combines architectural responsibility with the principal designer role.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Gilling Dod Limited on 9 July 2026. The award value was £43,950.50 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 1 October 2025 to 1 August 2026. The opportunity was handled as a selective procedure through a call-off from a framework agreement, with tender submissions due by 30 September 2025 at 12:00. The contract covers architect and principal designer services for the aseptic suite and dispensary refurbishment, through design stages 0 to 3. The published outcome identifies one active award to Gilling Dod Limited. The procurement was classified as refurbishment work, and the tender was recorded as complete.

This award indicates demand from The Christie NHS Foundation Trust for architectural and principal designer capability applied to aseptic suite and dispensary refurbishment. A credible competitor for similar work would need experience leading early design stages for healthcare refurbishment, understanding the operational and technical constraints of aseptic and pharmacy facilities, and carrying out the principal designer function alongside architectural duties. Familiarity with design development from stage 0 through stage 3 would be important, as would the ability to coordinate design information for an NHS client and work within a framework call-off route. The selected supplier was an SME, showing that this type of specialist design commission can be delivered by a smaller practice with suitable healthcare, refurbishment and design-management expertise.
