UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust is planning a procurement process for the refurbishment of a catering unit, with a main contractor role available. The project falls under the industry category of "Refurbishment of run-down buildings" and is located in the London area. Currently in the planning stage, this procurement has been announced as part of a pipeline notice on 14th May 2026. The planned contract period is from 1st September 2026 to 31st March 2027. While specific dates and times are not yet confirmed, the anticipated value of the contract is approximately £2 million, with a gross amount of £2.4 million. The procurement will use a limited method, suitable for below-threshold projects, highlighting a limited competition process within central government public authorities.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in construction and building refurbishments, particularly those with experience in revitalising underutilised infrastructure. Given the procurement method and limited competition, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) stand a good chance of securing the contract. Potential bidders should be prepared to engage through the electronic Tendering system via the specified e-Procurement Portal. Businesses with expertise in catering facility upgrades, construction project management, and an understanding of NHS specifications will find this tender a fitting opportunity to contribute to the healthcare sector, expand their portfolio, and establish long-term relationships with one of the UK's leading NHS Trusts.
