UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Somerset NHS Foundation Trust has concluded a procurement process to appoint a project cost advisor for the Antenatal relocation project at Musgrove Park Hospital, Taunton. The procurement was initiated under a 'limited' method, focusing on services and described as below threshold with limited competition. This process has moved to the award stage as of 17th July 2026, with the contract being active. The location of the project is within the region UKK23 in the United Kingdom, falling under the industry category of service costs, specifically for the calculation and monitoring of costs. The related contract is valued at £12,950, starting on 17th July 2026 and scheduled to end on 31st March 2027.

This tender offers opportunities for businesses in the cost advisory sector, particularly those with expertise in healthcare projects and cost management. Established companies like Kendall Kingscott Limited, which was awarded the contract, are well-suited for such roles, especially if they have experience collaborating with public authorities. Businesses looking to expand their portfolio in public sector healthcare projects might find similar opportunities in future procurement processes conducted by NHS organisations. Engaging in such opportunities can enhance business reputations and pave the way for long-term relationships with healthcare trusts.
