UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust procured building services and sustainability consultancy for its new hospital project in Bury St Edmunds. The work covers mechanical, electrical and public health engineering consultancy, building physics and specialist technical advice supporting the Trust’s planning application requirements. The appointed consultant prepared an Energy Statement, Sustainability Statement and Circular Economy Statement, and supported demonstration of compliance with planning policy, sustainability objectives, energy performance requirements and environmental design standards. This is a professional services requirement focused on energy-efficiency consultancy and the integration of building-services engineering with sustainability and planning evidence for a major healthcare development.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to ETA Projects Ltd. It used a below-threshold direct award without competition, with one completed lot. The contract was signed on 7 October 2025 and runs from 7 October 2025 to 6 October 2026. Its value is £12,937 excluding VAT, or £15,524.40 including VAT. The award is active and 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 comparative scoring or tender evaluation weightings.

This requirement indicates demand from West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust for a joined-up consultancy capable of combining MEP engineering, public-health engineering, building physics and sustainability advice. A credible future competitor would need to produce planning-support statements covering energy, sustainability and circular economy issues, while translating technical analysis into evidence that satisfies planning policy, energy-performance requirements and environmental design standards. Experience of applying these disciplines to complex healthcare or other major building projects would be relevant, particularly where the consultant must coordinate specialist advice with a planning application and wider project objectives. The awarded supplier was an SME, indicating that this scale and blend of expertise can be delivered by a specialist consultancy rather than only a large multidisciplinary firm.
