Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured healthcare specialist programme management services for its CE Tower Programme. The requirement was driven by the retirement of existing resource and the need to maintain the pace of decanting the Tower. The work is classified under project management software packages, but the practical requirement is programme management resource for a healthcare capital or operational change programme. Delivery is in the South West of England, associated with the Trust’s Gloucestershire operations. This is a services contract rather than a goods or construction opportunity. Businesses with experience supplying programme managers to NHS organisations, particularly for hospital decanting, estate change, service transition or similarly complex healthcare programmes, would be aligned with the requirement.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The award was made on 23 June 2026 to HUNTER HEALTHCARE RESOURCING LIMITED, an SME, for £44,432. The contract period runs from 29 June 2026 to 30 September 2026. The tender’s stated closing deadline was 26 June 2026 at 12:00 BST. The procurement was assessed as a services requirement and identified as suitable for SMEs. The award is active and the contract covers one requirement rather than separately awarded lots. The selected supplier is responsible for providing the specialist programme resource needed to support the CE Tower decanting programme.

This award demonstrates demand from Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for specialist programme management capacity that can be deployed quickly when healthcare change programmes lose key personnel. Suppliers competing for comparable work would need credible NHS or healthcare-sector programme expertise, experienced programme managers, and the ability to maintain delivery momentum during a hospital decant or other complex transition. Relevant capability includes coordinating multiple workstreams, managing dependencies, supporting operational continuity, and working with clinical, estates and corporate stakeholders. A small or medium-sized specialist resourcing business can be competitive where it has a suitable framework position, a reliable pool of healthcare programme professionals, and the capacity to provide an appropriately experienced individual at short notice.
