Summary of the contracting process

The Royal Surrey County Hospital NHS Foundation Trust in Guildford, United Kingdom, was in the process of procuring a contract for the provision and installation of solar panels on its premises. This procurement initiative was initially planned to take place with a projected start date for installation around 7th October 2025, and aimed to conclude by 31st March 2026. The procurement process was conducted through an open procedure under the legal framework of UKPGA 2023/54, targeting the goods and works categories. However, the latest update on 3rd October 2025, indicates the cancellation of the tender, with a notice stating that a comprehensive review will be undertaken before the opportunity is republished. The total procurement value was set at £750,000 with an ultimate gross value of £900,000.

This tender represented a substantial business opportunity, particularly for companies specialising in solar panel manufacturing and installations, with an emphasis on environmental responsibility and social value. The open procedure initially attracted considerable interest, reflected in the submission of multiple bids, including from SMEs like SRC North West LTD, illustrating the accessibility and appeal to a diverse range of businesses. Given the project's potential relaunch after review, businesses that can provide ESG-compliant technology, robust technical capability, and effective project management might find significant growth opportunities in revisiting this revised tender when reissued, helping them expand their project portfolio while contributing to sustainable energy initiatives in the public sector.
