Summary of the contracting process

The Christie NHS Foundation Trust commissioned a fire door survey and QR tagging service for its estate. The work involves surveying fire doors and attaching QR tags to support identification and management of those assets. This is a professional surveying service rather than construction, installation or general facilities management. The buying organisation is The Christie NHS Foundation Trust, based on Wilmslow Road in Manchester. The requirement was organised as a single lot and covers services associated with conducting surveys. Suppliers suited to this opportunity would typically operate in building compliance, fire safety surveying, asset information or facilities management, with the ability to inspect fire doors systematically and record or tag the resulting information for the Trust’s use.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was used. Turner & Townsend Project Management Limited was selected as the supplier, and the award is active. The contract was signed on 28 August 2026 and runs from 31 August 2026 to 20 November 2026. Its value is £93,280 excluding VAT, or £111,936 including VAT. The requirement was evaluated through the limited-competition route; the available outcome records the selected supplier but does not set out the individual evaluation criteria or weightings. The contract is classified as a service for conducting surveys and relates to the fire door survey and QR tagging requirement.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the requirement demonstrates a defined NHS demand for fire door surveying combined with QR tagging, delivered as a focused professional service rather than a major works contract. A credible competitor for a future requirement from The Christie NHS Foundation Trust would need practical fire door inspection capability, a consistent method for surveying an estate, and the ability to apply and manage QR tags as part of reliable asset records. Experience of healthcare or other complex occupied estates would help demonstrate that inspections can be organised with minimal disruption and accurate reporting. The procurement also shows that the Trust has used a below-threshold limited-competition route for this type of specialist survey service.
