UK3 - Planned Procurement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust is planning a procurement process for the demolition and associated services of the Service Wing at Hinchingbrooke Hospital. This tender is categorized under the construction and demolition work industry, with major works to start in September 2026 and complete by January 2028. Located in Peterborough, UK, the Trust invites contractors with experience in working with Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (RAAC). The procurement process is at the planning stage as of January 2026, with an open competitive dialogue approach being employed. Key deadlines include the end of the enquiry period on 30th January 2026, the tender submission by 8th April 2026, and a future notice date planned for 23rd February 2026.

This tender presents significant opportunities for construction firms, particularly those experienced with RAAC, to engage in a high-value project with the potential to expand their portfolios in the public sector. The Trust's decision to use an open competition below the threshold encourages wide participation, offering opportunities for both main contractors and subcontractors prepared to engage in a dialogue-based procurement process. Businesses involved in demolition, site preparation, and construction work will find the opportunity aligns well with their expertise, potentially leading to substantial growth and increased reputation through a successful collaboration with a central government public authority.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Hinchingbrooke Hospital Service Wing Demolition and Associated services

Notice Description

In the next eight weeks, the Trust will be going to market to appoint a contractor to deliver a range of works associated with the demolition of the existing Service Wing at the Hinchingbrooke Hospital site. This project is expected to commence in 2026/27 and continue through to 2032. Please note that the building consists of Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (RAAC). Contractors must therefore have demonstrable experience of delivering projects involving RAAC structures. The contract will comprise multiple elements, including: - Relocation of existing offices and store rooms to another RAAC area within the Service Wing. - Refurbishment of the destination RAAC area prior to any relocations. - Full decommissioning of building services within the existing wing. - Support with the relocation of the current waste compound to an alternative location on the site. - Completion of a new road connection to link an existing on-site road to a specified facility following demolition. The Trust intends to run an open, below-threshold competition using a competitive dialogue-style approach, enabling the Trust to draw on industry expertise in shaping the programme. The successful contractor will be responsible for validating RIBA Stage 3 designs produced by the Hinchingbrooke Hospital Redevelopment Programme (HHRP) consultants, BDP and WSP. This opportunity is intended to be awarded as a single contract to one lead contractor, who may engage subcontractors as required. Details regarding subcontracting arrangements will be explored during the procurement process. If you are interested in this opportunity, please contact the Procurement Team at nwangliaft.hhrpprocurement@nhs.net with your contact details and a brief summary of your interest in the project.
