Summary of the contracting process

The Airedale NHS Foundation Trust, located in Kieghley, United Kingdom, has recently completed a procurement process for the underground relocation of overhead high-voltage power cables necessary for the construction activities at the Airedale New Hospital. The contract was awarded through a direct procurement method, acknowledging that Northern Powergrid (Yorkshire) PLC is the sole authorised supplier with exclusive rights and technical authority to perform the required works. The award date for the contract was 28th August 2025, with the contract period running from 1st September 2025 to 22nd August 2026, with an option to extend until 22nd August 2027 to accommodate potential construction delays. The primary location for the project spans several regions across the United Kingdom, including UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, UKI, UKJ, and UKK, and falls under the 'Construction Work' category with a total gross value of £1,241,674.60.

This procurement provides significant opportunities for businesses engaged in the construction and utilities sectors, especially those with capabilities in high-voltage infrastructure and stringent compliance standards. Given that Northern Powergrid is a large-scale supplier, collaborations and subcontracting opportunities may exist for smaller specialised firms in high-voltage technologies, safety compliance, and utility coordination. Companies in proximity to the geographical regions involved or those with experience in hospital-related infrastructure development could find this project a gateway to further contracts, nurturing growth and expanding their portfolio in public sector projects.
