Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust involved a project titled "Staff and Medical Student Accommodation," focusing on the development of prefabricated buildings. The contract entails constructing a modular four-storey building to house 85 bedspaces, along with plant rooms and storage facilities. This initiative falls under the industry category of prefabricated buildings with the CPV classification 44211000. The location for the project is Peterborough, England, with postal code PE3 9GZ. The procurement stage is currently at the award phase, as of 12 December 2025, with North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust awarding the contract to ZED PODS LTD. The procurement was done through a selective method, specifically a call-off from the Crown Commercial Services RM6184 Offsite Construction Solutions framework, Lot 3 Residential. The project is set to commence on 1 December 2025 and conclude by 25 February 2027.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the construction and supply of prefabricated or modular building units. Companies skilled in delivering rapid housing solutions, particularly those experienced within public sector frameworks, would be well-positioned to compete in similar future tenders. The direct award approach highlights the need for timely delivery, emphasising the importance of having an efficient logistic and manufacturing setup. Businesses that can offer competitive, scalable, and efficient offsite construction solutions, especially those already familiar with public health infrastructure requirements, stand to benefit from such projects. Although this specific tender does not cater to SMEs or VCSEs, larger enterprises specialising in modular construction could leverage this to expand their portfolio within the health sector.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Staff and Medical Student Accommodation

Notice Description

To develop a 4-storey modular accommodation building to accommodate 85 bedspaces, plant rooms, storage and bin store Additional information: Option 3 from the Trusts short form business case was approved by the NHS New Hospital Programme which is the construction of modular on-site units. This included relocating the Trusts existing Zed Pods units (Captain Sir Thomas Moore House) to the new location for staff and student accommodation. The Trust is purchasing an additional 42 Zed Pod units to bring a total of 85 beds available for staff and students. This call off contract is a direct award under the Crown Commercial Services RM6184 Offsite Construction Solutions framework, Lot 3 Residential. The Trust considered running a competitive tender process. However, the programme milestones meant that this is not feasible. The availability of the accommodation in time for further demolition projects to commence is critical, and as such timely procurement of the accommodation is essential. A competitive tender process would not enable the programme to meet the timelines.
