The procurement falls under the industry category of "Advisory and consultative engineering services" with the contract valued at £20,523.78. This tender reached the award stage, with Healthcare Estates Consultant Services Ltd named as the supplier. The contract period is set from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2028. Although the tender was completed, key dates included the tender period ending on 14th March 2025, and the contract awarded on 17th March 2025.

This procurement opportunity is ideal for businesses specialising in consultative and advisory engineering services within the healthcare sector. Given that the contract has already been awarded, similar opportunities may provide growth for businesses able to demonstrate expertise in decontamination advisory services.
