Summary of the contracting process

Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust commissioned bespoke home modifications to enable renal patients to receive dialysis in their own homes. The work is residential construction and adaptation, tailored to the requirements of patients’ home environments. The stated delivery area is Lancashire. This requirement links building and home-improvement work with the practical needs of patients receiving renal care, rather than general residential construction.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to AF Traylor & Sons Ltd. The Trust used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 24 August 2026 and runs from 24 August 2026 to 31 March 2028, with an option to extend by one year, to 31 March 2029. The contract value is £125,000 excluding VAT (£150,000 including VAT). There was one lot. No evaluation criteria are stated for this direct award.

For suppliers considering similar work for Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, this award demonstrates demand for individually designed home adaptations that make home dialysis practical for renal patients. A credible competitor would need to deliver residential building work tailored to patients’ homes and coordinate the modifications with the requirements of renal care. The successful supplier was a small business, showing that this requirement was delivered by an SME, although the award does not establish that a particular business size or accreditation was required. The route used was a direct award without competition, so the result is evidence of the buyer’s requirement and supplier choice rather than a competed benchmark of technical or price criteria.
