UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust commissioned professional services for its Mortuary Improvements programme. The requirement covers a Principal Designer and CDM Advisor, providing design leadership and advising on compliance with the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations for the planned mortuary works. The related service classification is architectural design services. The buyer is Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, an NHS organisation based on Great George Street in Leeds. The work is associated with the Trust’s mortuary improvement requirements and is relevant to architectural practices, healthcare estates advisers, principal designers and construction-design risk specialists supporting NHS capital projects. The procurement was structured as a single service requirement rather than a group of separately described work packages.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. Drees & Sommer UK Limited was selected as the supplier, and the award is active. The contract was signed on 1 April 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its value is £10,685 excluding VAT and £12,822 including VAT. The contract concerns the Mortuary Improvements requirement and covers the single completed lot. The published procurement information identifies the award route as direct, below threshold and without competition, so this outcome does not represent a competed tender or a multi-supplier award.

This award shows demand from an NHS acute-care provider for specialist advice combining principal-designer responsibilities, CDM advisory work and architectural design capability in a mortuary-improvement setting. Businesses well placed for comparable requirements would have experience coordinating design and construction risk, interpreting CDM duties, producing or reviewing architectural proposals, and working with healthcare estates teams in an operational hospital environment. Credibility would be strengthened by demonstrable delivery of sensitive refurbishment or improvement projects, clear governance and risk-management processes, and the capacity to support the buyer through design and advisory activity across the service period. The selected supplier is a large organisation, indicating that the buyer accepted a provider able to offer established professional resources and relevant built-environment expertise.
