Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust commissioned electrical capacity consultancy for the Wycombe Hospital site. The requirement was for design consultancy to review the hospital’s electrical capacity, demand and occupation, supporting the Trust’s future estates and capital investment strategy. This is a specialist building consultancy services requirement, focused on assessing existing and future electrical needs within a healthcare estate. The work was associated with the Trust’s hospital operations in Buckinghamshire and was procured as a service rather than as construction or equipment supply. Businesses relevant to this requirement include electrical engineering consultancies, building services designers and estates advisers able to assess hospital electrical infrastructure, demand patterns, occupancy and implications for future capital investment.

The procurement has reached completion and an active award was made to Hoare Lea LLP. The contract was signed on 16 July 2026 for £64,020. The Trust used a limited direct-award procedure without a prior call for competition, via the NHS-approved SBS Healthcare Planning, Construction Consultancy and Ancillary Services framework. The stated rationale was that the procurement fell outside the applicable directive’s scope. Evaluation was based on price. The requirement was organised as one lot, although that lot is recorded as cancelled while the related award remains active. One bid was recorded. The published process identifies Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust as the buyer and Hoare Lea LLP as the selected supplier.

This award indicates demand from Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust for specialist electrical-capacity advice linked to hospital estates and capital planning. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to combine building-services or electrical-design consultancy with the ability to analyse electrical capacity, demand and occupation across an operational healthcare site. Relevant capability includes surveying and modelling existing infrastructure, identifying future capacity constraints, and translating findings into practical estates or investment advice. Experience working in hospitals or other complex occupied estates would help demonstrate that the business can manage sensitive operational environments and understand healthcare infrastructure. The procurement route also shows the importance of access to the NHS-approved SBS healthcare planning and construction consultancy framework.
