Summary of the contracting process

Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust commissioned cost adviser services for the Trowbridge Community Diagnostic Centre (CDC) Phase 1 project. The requirement covers quantity surveying and related cost advisory work supporting the project’s development and delivery. The buying organisation is based in Swindon, and the services relate to the CDC project in Trowbridge. This is a public-sector healthcare construction advisory requirement rather than the supply of clinical equipment or the delivery of patient services. It is relevant to quantity surveyors, cost consultants and professional firms providing commercial cost management for NHS or other healthcare capital projects. The procurement is focused on one project and one service category, with the work centred on advising the Trust about project costs and associated financial considerations.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. The requirement was treated as a single lot. W.T. Partnership Limited was selected as the supplier. The contract was signed on 4 August 2026 and runs from 4 August 2026 to 31 December 2027. Its value is £22,700 excluding VAT, or £27,240 including VAT. The tender was evaluated as a services procurement for quantity surveying. The contract is active, as is the award. This outcome indicates a relatively small, defined advisory commission supporting a specific CDC phase, with the supplier appointed for the stated contract period rather than through a multi-supplier framework or competitive lot structure.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for specialist cost advice on a community diagnostic centre capital project. A credible competitor for similar work would need strong quantity surveying and cost consultancy capability, with the ability to advise an NHS client through the financial management of a healthcare development. Relevant strengths would include preparing and reviewing project cost information, supporting budget control, and communicating clear commercial advice to a public-sector project team. Experience of construction or capital-project environments would help a supplier understand the practical requirements, risks and reporting expectations of this type of commission. The appointed supplier is a large professional firm, indicating that the buyer accepted a structured consultancy capable of delivering focused project advice.
