Summary of the contracting process

Mersey and West Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust commissioned engineering consultancy services for the Ormskirk Endoscopy Refurbishment scheme. The requirement covered an independent peer review of the initial fire strategy report and fire strategy drawing, together with comments on the proposed fire strategy and drawings. It also included ongoing architectural and engineering support to the project each month for four months. The work relates specifically to fire-strategy assurance and professional engineering advice within a hospital refurbishment environment in Ormskirk, Lancashire. The buyer is an NHS teaching hospitals trust, so suppliers need to understand the operational and compliance considerations associated with refurbishment works in a healthcare setting.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It was a below-threshold procurement, with the local procurement method described as unknown. One lot was completed, and the contract was awarded to Leviathan Consulting Limited. The award was active on 14 August 2026, when the contract was signed. The contract runs from 14 August 2026 to 13 December 2026. Its value is £11,214 excluding VAT, or £13,456 including VAT. The award covers engineering services for the peer review and continuing support described in the requirement. The available outcome information identifies the selected supplier and contract terms, but does not set out a separate evaluation weighting or award-criteria formula.

This procurement demonstrates demand from the NHS trust for specialist engineering consultancy supporting fire strategy assurance and refurbishment projects. A credible future supplier would need to review fire strategy reports and drawings critically, provide clear technical comments, and support the project team through continuing professional advice rather than a one-off document review. Experience of hospital or other complex occupied-building refurbishments would be relevant to understanding the constraints of healthcare environments, although the requirement itself does not state a particular accreditation or qualification. The scale is a focused consultancy assignment delivered over several months, suited to a specialist engineering practice or small consultancy able to provide reliable monthly support and work directly with the trust’s project team.
