Summary of the contracting process

North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust procured building works to make an existing reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (RAAC) theatre space safe, followed by refurbishment and conversion of the theatre into office accommodation so staff could relocate. The requirement was for construction work, including RAAC failsafe measures and the associated internal conversion works. The buyer is based in Peterborough. The selected contractor, Construct Building Services Limited, is based in Cambridge and is classified as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The published delivery information places the works in the United Kingdom, within the buyer’s operating area. This is a single works requirement rather than a supplies or consultancy contract, and covers the complete failsafe and refurbishment project.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold open competition. Construct Building Services Limited was selected for the single lot. The estimated value was £2,600,000 excluding VAT (£3,120,000 including VAT). The signed contract value is £1,131,789.01 excluding VAT (£1,358,146.81 including VAT). The contract was signed on 31 July 2026 and runs from 31 July 2026 to 22 January 2027. The tender deadline was 20 May 2026 at 2pm, with enquiries closing on 12 May 2026 at midday. Evaluation weighted technical quality at 65%, social value at 10% and commercial considerations at 25%. The selection requirement included previous experience of RAAC and failsafe works.

This award demonstrates demand from North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust for specialist construction contractors able to work safely in existing RAAC-affected healthcare premises and deliver failsafe measures before undertaking refurbishment. A credible future competitor would need evidenced experience of RAAC remediation or related structural safety work, together with the capability to manage a theatre-space conversion into functioning offices. The evaluation gives greatest importance to the technical offer, so firms would need strong delivery methods, competent personnel, risk control and relevant project evidence. Social value commitments and commercial performance also affect competitiveness. The requirement was suitable for SMEs, indicating that a smaller building contractor with the right technical experience, construction capacity and healthcare-site controls could compete when comparable work returns.
