UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured corporation tax advisory services for special purpose vehicles associated with the Cambridge Cancer Research Hospital and the Cambridge Children’s Hospital. The work concerns tax advice for these hospital development projects, with the services delivered in Cambridge. The requirement is specialist professional consultancy rather than construction or the supply of goods, and relates specifically to the tax arrangements of the project vehicles.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to KPMG LLP. It was a below-threshold procurement, with one lot covering the requirement. The contract was signed on 30 September 2026 and runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. Its value is £62,250 excluding VAT (£74,700 including VAT). The procurement record does not set out an evaluation method or eligibility criteria, so the basis for comparing suppliers cannot be described. The awarded contract is active.

For future comparable work with Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, credible suppliers would need demonstrable corporation tax expertise, particularly advising on special purpose vehicles used for major hospital development projects. Experience supporting complex healthcare or public-sector capital projects would be relevant to understanding the project context and the tax considerations of those vehicles. The selected provider is a large professional services firm, indicating that the buyer has engaged an established advisory supplier for this specialist requirement. Firms with the technical tax capability and capacity to advise on project-specific structures would be best placed to compete when this buyer next needs similar advice.
