Summary of the contracting process

The Princess Alexandra Hospitals NHS Trust has completed the procurement process for the Rainbow Nursery Improvements project, valued at £30,000. The contract was awarded to R&B Decorators & Refurbishment (Skafftec Ltd) on 3rd November 2025, following a selective procurement method using a call-off from an established framework agreement (SBS10166 Hard Facilities Management 2). This construction project, classified under the CPV code 45000000, is located in the South East, United Kingdom, with postal code CM20 1QX. The contract period extends from 3rd November 2025 to 31st March 2026, marking the completion of the award stage. Key contact for this project is Kevin Michael McKeown from the NHS Trust, which has its base at Hamstel Road, Harlow, AL8 7PX.

This tender offers business growth opportunities primarily for companies engaged in construction work, particularly those with experience in facilities management and refurbishment. Such projects can benefit small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) by allowing them to leverage framework agreements, facilitating predictable streams of work through direct awards. Though the awarded supplier in this case is an SME, it should be noted that the procurement criteria did not particularly favour SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies looking to expand their portfolio in the public sector and have the ability to deliver high-quality refurbishment works would be well-suited to compete for similar contracts now and in the future.
