UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Somerset NHS Foundation Trust has completed the procurement process for the refurbishment of the Rydon Ward's reception area and the creation of new ECA suites at Musgrove Park Hospital in Taunton. With an initial tender process that began earlier in 2025, the contract was awarded to Qube Construct Ltd, a supplier recognised for refurbishment work, as per the Common Procurement Vocabulary (CPV) classification. This award, finalised on 17th September 2025, marked the completion stage of the procurement cycle, with active contract status starting on 18th November 2025 and projected to conclude by the 31st March 2026. The procurement followed an open competition below-threshold method, focusing on works in the hospital facilities construction category.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in hospital facility upgrades, particularly those with expertise in refurbishment and construction work in healthcare settings. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with proven technical capabilities in executing healthcare projects and a commitment to providing cost-effective solutions stand to benefit greatly from such opportunities. Given the emphasis on both cost and technical quality in the award criteria, businesses that can balance competitive pricing with high standards in technical execution are well-positioned to thrive in procuring similar contracts in the future.
