Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "WHHT - Capital Projects Core Team (2026/04>2026/09)" was conducted by the West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospital NHS Trust, focusing on building and facilities management services under the CPV classification 79993000. This process took place in the South East Region of the United Kingdom, and reached the award stage with its completion marked on 23 March 2026. This direct award was facilitated through the SBS Construction Consultancy Framework SBS10190 Lot 2 for Project Management and is valued at approximately £192,314.80. The contract period extends from 1 April 2026 to 31 August 2026, with critical procurement activities having concluded by 9 March 2026.

Opportunities for business growth stem from this competitive call-off process from a framework agreement, particularly advantageous for companies specialising in building and facilities management services. Although the procurement method was selective, businesses that are experienced in navigating framework agreements and that have capabilities in project management in the healthcare sector could find this type of contract rewarding. While this particular contract did not suit smaller enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), larger established enterprises within this industry category are well positioned to benefit from such opportunities. The successful supplier, GSCI Consultants Limited, exemplifies the expertise required to match such a selective procurement demand.
