UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust procured design, construction and refurbishment works at its emergency and medical care facilities in Bury St Edmunds. The scope covered alterations, installation and finishing for the Emergency Department reception desk and the MECU reception desk, together with a new bereavement room and water-assisted WC facilities. It also included associated building elements needed to support operational requirements. This is a healthcare refurbishment and building-works requirement, classified under CPV 45453100 for refurbishment work. The work was bought and used by West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust, with the delivery location identified as the Trust’s site in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded directly, below the applicable threshold and without competition. It comprised one completed lot. SEH French Ltd was awarded the contract, and the contract was signed on 14 November 2025. The contract runs from 14 November 2025 to 13 November 2026. Its value is £572,911.30 excluding VAT, or £687,493.56 including VAT. The contract is active. The requirement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender, so the published outcome identifies the selected supplier but does not set out a competitive scoring basis or tender evaluation weighting.

This requirement indicates demand from an NHS trust for a principal building contractor able to deliver occupied healthcare refurbishment, combining design responsibility with construction, alteration, installation and finishing. Credible competitors would need to coordinate several linked clinical and patient-facing spaces, including emergency reception facilities, a medical emergency care reception, a bereavement room and an accessible water-assisted WC. Relevant capability includes healthcare-site delivery, careful management of operational constraints, integrated building trades and high-quality finishes. The work also suits an SME-scale contractor with the capacity to manage a substantial single-site refurbishment package and coordinate associated building elements from design through completion.
