Planned Procurement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells NHS Trust intends to procure hospital refurbishment works and minor new-build construction. The work is classified as refurbishment and falls within the works category. It is intended for delivery at the Trust’s Maidstone location, at Hermitage Lane, Maidstone, Kent, ME16 9QQ, within the United Kingdom. The scope covers refurbishment of existing hospital facilities together with smaller new-build projects. This may suit contractors able to manage building works in an operational healthcare estate, including coordinating refurbishment and construction activities across hospital premises. The buying organisation is Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells NHS Trust, which will use the works to improve or extend its hospital estate.

This procurement is at the planning stage: the Trust has declared an intention to procure, but has not yet invited tenders. It expects to use an open procedure above the threshold. The buyer’s indicative date for the next notice is 4 August 2026. The anticipated contract period is 1 April 2027 to 15 August 2030. The stated value range is approximately £250,000 to £3.5 million, with the procurement value recorded as £250,000 GBP. The planned procurement is a single works requirement rather than a published lot structure. The opportunity is identified as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. Evaluation details have not been set out at this stage.

Preparation is relevant for established construction contractors with the capacity to deliver refurbishment works and minor new-build projects for an NHS trust. The requirement points to suppliers experienced in managing varied building work rather than a single specialist supply item, with the organisational capacity to undertake projects over a multi-year delivery period. Contractors should consider their ability to work within hospital premises, manage refurbishment alongside new construction, and coordinate safely around an operational healthcare environment. Larger firms and delivery partnerships may be better placed than smaller businesses, because the buyer has indicated that the procurement is unsuitable for SMEs. Relevant healthcare-estate experience would help suppliers prepare.
