Summary of the contracting process

The UK Health Security Agency, acting for the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, procured senior construction advisory and consulting services for its Health Security Campus Programme. The requirement covers construction consultancy services supporting the campus programme, with delivery across the United Kingdom. It is a professional services opportunity for construction advisers and consultants able to provide senior-level input to a public health infrastructure programme. The buyer is a central government public authority based in London. The procurement comprised one lot covering the complete advisory requirement, rather than separate packages for different construction disciplines or locations. The selected supplier is Apple Barn Consulting Ltd, a large organisation based in Malvern, indicating that the requirement was fulfilled through an established construction consultancy provider.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. The buyer used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. One lot was completed and awarded to Apple Barn Consulting Ltd. The contract was signed on 31 July 2026 and runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £91,000 excluding VAT and £109,200 including VAT. The award covers construction consultancy services for the Health Security Campus Programme, evaluated through the buyer’s direct-award route rather than a competitive tender. The contract is active. The published outcome therefore records both the selected supplier and the agreed one-year service period for this senior construction advisory requirement.

This procurement shows demand from the UK Health Security Agency for senior construction advisory support linked to a health security campus programme. A competitor seeking similar work would need credible construction consultancy capability, with senior advisers able to support a public-sector campus programme and provide advice at programme level rather than only individual trade or supply-chain services. The route used here was a below-threshold direct award without competition, so familiarity with public-sector requirements and the ability to engage directly with a government health-security organisation would be commercially relevant. The selected supplier was recorded as a large organisation, suggesting that capacity to provide sustained senior advisory support was important for this requirement. The same buyer’s future requirements are likely to favour comparable construction consultancy experience and delivery capacity.
