Summary of the contracting process

The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured architectural consultancy services for its X-Ray Suite project. The work covers architectural design and associated consultancy needed to support the project’s development and delivery. This is a healthcare construction and refurbishment design requirement, focused on an NHS diagnostic imaging facility rather than the supply of imaging equipment or clinical services. The project is associated with The Hillingdon Hospital on Pield Heath Road in Uxbridge, Greater London. It was arranged as one requirement for the Trust, with the appointed architectural practice supporting the client through the development and delivery of the X-Ray Suite. Businesses relevant to this requirement include architectural consultancies with experience designing healthcare environments and coordinating related professional services.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. The Trust used a direct award under an established framework agreement, without competition, for a below-threshold service. The award was made on 3 August 2026 to Hunter and Partners Group Limited, trading as Hunters. The award value is £33,220.27 excluding VAT, or £39,864.32 including VAT. The contract period runs from 31 August 2026 to 30 August 2027. There was one completed lot covering the X-Ray Suite architect services. The published outcome records the award as active, while the tender itself is complete. The award information also scheduled signature for 27 August 2026, indicating that contract finalisation was expected at that stage.

This procurement demonstrates demand from The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for architectural consultancy linked to the development and delivery of an NHS X-Ray Suite. A credible future competitor would need to provide architectural design alongside associated consultancy, understand the constraints of healthcare environments and coordinate design work that supports a diagnostic imaging project. Experience delivering comparable hospital or clinical-facility schemes would help demonstrate relevance, particularly where design must integrate with an operational NHS estate and specialist imaging requirements. The route used here also shows the importance of access to an established framework agreement and the ability to secure a direct, below-threshold appointment. The selected supplier was an SME, indicating that firms of this scale can satisfy the requirement.
