UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust commissioned ecology surveying and reporting for Cirencester Hospital. The work supports the Trust’s planning application to the local planning authority, so the requirement is focused on ecological survey services and the preparation of associated reports rather than construction or general environmental consultancy. Delivery is at Cirencester Hospital in Gloucestershire. The buyer is an NHS foundation trust based at Gloucester Business Park, near Gloucester. This opportunity is relevant to ecological consultancies, environmental survey practices and specialists able to assess hospital or development sites and produce clear reporting suitable for submission alongside a planning application. The requirement sits within the services category and concerns survey services.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct below-threshold procedure without competition. EcoCon Limited was selected as the supplier for the single lot. The award is active and the contract was signed on 23 July 2026. The contract runs from 23 July 2026 to 23 July 2027. Its value is £14,454.20 excluding VAT, or £17,345.04 including VAT. The requirement was evaluated through the buyer’s direct-award route rather than a competitive tender. The awarded scope covers ecology surveying and reporting at Cirencester Hospital, to support a planning application to the local planning authority. The contract is below the relevant procurement threshold.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement from an NHS foundation trust for site-specific ecology surveying and planning-related reporting at a hospital. Competitors seeking similar work for this buyer would need practical ecological surveying capability, the ability to assess a healthcare or development setting, and experience producing reports that can support planning applications and local planning authority review. Clear technical writing and reliable delivery of survey findings would be important, as the requirement combines field survey work with formal reporting. EcoCon Limited’s selection also shows that an SME environmental consultancy can deliver this type of NHS requirement. Firms with comparable ecology expertise and experience working with public-sector planning processes would be well placed for future requirements of the same kind.
