Summary of the contracting process

South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust is seeking a contractor for sprinkler and remedial works at the Pears Maudsley Centre for Children and Young People, on the Maudsley Hospital campus in Southeast London. The works concern the fourth-floor Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services unit, which will remain unoccupied until completion. The scope includes removing significant sections of corridor and room ceilings to adjust sprinkler systems; installing a new pre-action sprinkler system with galvanised pipework while retaining existing above-ceiling protection; connecting to a local riser; and supplying a compressor with noise attenuation near bedrooms. The building is approximately 9,150 square metres over 10 levels and contains inpatient, outpatient, crisis-care and clinical research facilities. Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust is managing the procurement.

The procurement has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through a below-threshold open competition, with tender responses and communications handled electronically through an e-tendering portal. It is a single lot for works, with an estimated value of £400,000 excluding VAT (£480,000 including VAT). The buyer set 16 October 2026 at 12:00 BST as both the deadline for enquiries and the deadline for tender submissions. The contract period is 23 November 2026 to 31 March 2027. The award criteria are set out in the tender documentation. The procurement is below the applicable threshold. Suppliers should use the electronic tendering system for the procurement process and submit their responses through that system by the stated deadline.

This opportunity suits fire-protection and specialist building-services contractors able to design or install sprinkler infrastructure and carry out associated remedial building works in a complex healthcare setting. Relevant capability includes installing pre-action sprinkler systems, working with galvanised pipework and existing above-ceiling protection, making new connections to a local riser, and coordinating ceiling removal and reinstatement. Contractors will need to manage work within a large, multi-level mental-health and clinical research building, including a dedicated children and young people’s unit. Experience of working around bedrooms and occupied or operational healthcare environments would be commercially relevant to the requirement, particularly where plant noise must be controlled. The scale and technical interface favour suppliers with sufficient installation, coordination and remedial-works capacity to deliver a complete package.
