Summary of the contracting process

West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust procured CCTV drainage survey services for its new hospital development. The work covered surveying existing drainage infrastructure on the Trust site to establish its location, configuration, capacity and condition. It was intended to assess whether existing drainage assets could be incorporated into the proposed hospital, identify defects, confirm asset condition, and inform related design, engineering and planning activities. This is a specialist engineering and infrastructure assessment service, classified under engineering studies. The buyer is based in Bury St Edmunds, and the survey work concerns the Trust’s development site. The requirement is therefore relevant to drainage investigation contractors able to carry out CCTV surveys and produce findings suitable for hospital development planning.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Anglian Drainage Ltd following a below-threshold limited competition. There was one completed lot. The contract, titled Drainage Survey and Condition Assessment Services, was signed on 19 May 2026 and runs from 19 May to 20 May 2026. Its value is £18,151 excluding VAT, or £21,781.20 including VAT. The selected supplier is Anglian Drainage Ltd. The published outcome records the award as active and the contract as active. Evaluation information recorded for this process is the use of a limited competition below the applicable threshold; the available outcome identifies the successful supplier and the contracted drainage survey and condition assessment service.

This procurement shows a defined requirement for specialist CCTV drainage investigation linked to major NHS construction and estate development. Suppliers competing for comparable work for West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust would need the practical capability to survey existing drainage networks, locate and map infrastructure, assess pipe capacity and condition, identify defects, and provide reliable evidence for design, engineering and planning decisions. Credible delivery depends on combining CCTV survey work with clear condition assessment and technically useful reporting. Contractors with the equipment, staff and technical processes to work accurately on an NHS development site would be well placed. The awarded supplier is an SME, indicating that this type of focused specialist service can be delivered by a smaller drainage business.
