Summary of the contracting process

University Hospitals Dorset NHS Foundation Trust is buying fire compartmentation works for communal areas of Parkstone House, a multi-storey high-rise residential building on the Poole General Hospital campus in Poole. The work involves supplying and installing fire compartmentation measures to help divide the building into fire-resistant sections. It is a building construction project, rather than a supply-only purchase or a general hospital services contract. The requirement concerns work within the hospital campus and the residential building’s shared areas.

The Trust invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The tender deadline was 29 October 2026 at 14:00 UTC; the deadline for supplier questions was 12 October 2026 at 12:00 UK time. The contract period is 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2028. The estimated value is £1,000,000 excluding VAT (£1,200,000 including VAT). The procurement is a single lot. Bids are assessed on commercial submission (60%) and technical quality and social values (40%).

This opportunity suits building contractors with the capability to supply and install fire compartmentation in communal areas of a high-rise residential building. The stated scope calls for construction delivery on a hospital campus, so bidders should be equipped to plan and carry out building works in that setting. Small and medium-sized enterprises are identified as suitable to compete. Price is the larger share of the evaluation, while technical quality and social value together form the remainder, so suppliers need both a competitive commercial offer and a credible account of delivery quality and social value. The contract is a defined building-works package rather than a multi-lot programme.
