Summary of the contracting process

The Wirral University Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust has completed the procurement process for the re-development of the Aseptic Unit at Arrowe Park Hospital, situated in Bebington, United Kingdom. This project, categorized under the works industry, aimed at installation works of cleanrooms, followed an open procedure, ensuring inclusive opportunities for eligible contractors. The procurement reached its award stage on 10th June 2026, with BASSAIRE CLEANROOMS LTD successfully securing the contract valued at GBP 2,841,222. The contract period is set from 6th July 2026 to 31st March 2027, and it demonstrates a strategic development under the legal guidance of UK legislation (2023/54).

For businesses involved in cleanroom installation and refurbishment, this project underscores lucrative opportunities for growth, particularly for SMEs similar to BASSAIRE CLEANROOMS LTD, which have demonstrated competence in designing pharmaceutical cleanrooms. Companies with experience in NHS Trust or equivalent projects that involve compliance with the MHRA under a Manufacturer's Specials Licence are particularly well-suited to similar future tenders.
