UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process outlined in this document was undertaken by the Royal United Hospitals Bath NHS Foundation Trust for the project titled "Block 31 Chill Room Prep," focusing on refurbishment work within the Main Kitchens Block 31. Located in Bath, UK, and falling under the industry category of 'works,' the procurement reached the award stage with the contract being actively managed. The procurement method utilised was 'limited,' indicating a below-threshold competition. This contract, valued at £44,776.00 (gross amount £53,731.20), was awarded on 20th February 2026, with the project scheduled to conclude by 31st March 2026.

This tender creates significant opportunities for businesses specialising in refurbishment and construction works, particularly those with experience in the healthcare sector. The limited competition aspect suggests that smaller businesses or those with specialised expertise could effectively compete for similar future projects. Companies equipped with the skills to work on specialised installations, such as blast chillers, would find this type of procurement particularly aligned with their service offerings.
