Summary of the contracting process

The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust commissioned consultancy services to develop specifications and key performance indicator documentation for soft services. The work supports future procurement and contract management within the Trust’s Estates and Facilities function. The service is general management consultancy, covering the definition of service requirements and performance measures for soft facilities services. The Central London Community Healthcare NHS Trust manages the procurement on behalf of the buying organisation through NWLPS. The requirement relates to NHS estates and facilities operations associated with The Hillingdon Hospital in Uxbridge and the wider Trust environment. It is relevant to management consultancies and facilities-management specialists that help public-sector organisations specify soft services, structure measurable outputs and prepare contract-management information.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. Just Contract Management Limited was selected as the supplier for the single lot. The contract was signed on 7 September 2026 and runs from 9 September 2026 to 1 May 2027. Its value is £22,800 excluding VAT, or £27,360 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The stated basis for the engagement is the development of specifications and KPI documentation for soft services, supporting future procurement and contract management. This outcome indicates a small, defined consultancy engagement rather than a competitive tender for the subsequent delivery of soft facilities services.

This award shows demand from an NHS trust for specialist support in turning soft-services requirements into procurement-ready specifications and practical performance measures. A credible competitor for similar work would need to understand facilities management in an NHS or comparable public-sector estate, including how cleaning, catering, portering, security, waste or related support services are described and monitored where relevant to the brief. Useful capability would include requirements gathering, service specification drafting, KPI design, measurable performance standards, contract-management documentation and the ability to work with Estates and Facilities stakeholders. Suppliers should be able to produce clear, auditable documentation that supports future tendering and ongoing supplier management, while working within public procurement constraints and coordinating with a procurement team managing the process.
