Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Modular Discharge Lounge" is being facilitated by the Northampton General Hospital NHS Trust, located in Northampton, United Kingdom. The initiative aims to enhance patient experience, capacity, and flow through the construction of a modular discharge lounge. The planning stage is currently underway as of May 2026, with a selective procurement method detailed as a "Below threshold - award under framework." The procurement falls under the works category with an estimated gross value of £2,400,000, and the building construction work is scheduled to commence on 1st August 2026, concluding by 31st March 2027. The project is located in the UKF2 region and could potentially be extended until 31st March 2028.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in building construction, particularly those with expertise in modular and portable buildings. The procurement's scale and complexity imply opportunities for medium to large enterprises that can efficiently deliver a structured and reliable construction project. Companies with experience in working under selective frameworks and those capable of providing modular solutions will be well-positioned to compete. This initiative not only supports infrastructural development within the healthcare sector but also aligns with entities aiming to establish a long-term association with a reputable NHS Trust.
