UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust commissioned architectural design services for RIBA Stage 5, titled “Stage 5 Design”. The requirement covers AFL RIBA Stage 5 Design work associated with the Trust’s activities. Delivery is across England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, the South East and the South West. The buying organisation is based on Clatterbridge Road in Bebington, Wirral. The procurement is categorised as a service, specifically architectural design services (CPV 71220000). The selected supplier is Atherden Fuller Leng Limited, an SME architectural practice based in Manchester. The requirement was awarded as one completed lot.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The Trust used a direct award below the applicable threshold without competition. Atherden Fuller Leng Limited was awarded the contract on 24 July 2026. The contract was signed on 24 July 2026 and runs from 27 July 2026 to 26 August 2026. Its value is £16,200 excluding VAT and £19,440 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The published process records one completed lot. The stated requirement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender, so no competitive scoring basis or bid comparison is recorded. The contract relates to architectural design services for RIBA Stage 5.

This award is useful market evidence for architectural practices seeking work with The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust. A credible future competitor would need to provide architectural design services at RIBA Stage 5 and operate at a scale suited to a relatively short, focused commission. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a specialist practice rather than only a large multidisciplinary consultancy. Firms with demonstrable capability in detailed architectural design and the capacity to work across England would be well placed to monitor similar requirements from this buyer. The direct-award route also shows that below-threshold, non-competitive appointments are part of the Trust’s purchasing activity for this type of service.
