UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Dorset HealthCare University NHS Foundation Trust procured refurbishment works for the main ward kitchen on the Perinatal Unit (Florence) at 49 Alumhurst Road. The requirement was to refurbish an existing kitchen serving the unit. The work falls within building refurbishment, rather than the supply of kitchen equipment alone. Delivery is at the 49 Alumhurst Road site; the procurement does not identify a town for that address. This is a single-site healthcare facilities project for the Trust, which is responsible for the unit. The scope published is limited to the main ward kitchen refurbishment, so suppliers whose work covers refurbishment of kitchens in healthcare settings are the closest fit.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Westmade Ltd. The Trust used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 21 October 2026 and runs from 14 November to 31 December 2026. Its value is £52,966 excluding VAT and £63,559.20 including VAT. There was one lot, covering the ward kitchen refurbishment, and the award is active. The award data identifies refurbishment work as the contracted category. No award criteria or detailed evaluation basis are recorded in the supplied process information, so the basis on which bids were compared cannot be described.

This award shows Dorset HealthCare University NHS Foundation Trust buying a focused refurbishment of a ward kitchen within a specialist perinatal healthcare unit, rather than a broad estate-wide programme. Westmade Ltd was selected for the work. Suppliers seeking to compete for a similar requirement from this Trust would need credible kitchen refurbishment capability and the capacity to deliver a contained project at an operational healthcare site. Experience planning and carrying out refurbishment in a clinical environment would help demonstrate fit with the setting and the need to work around ward operations, although specific technical standards, accreditations or experience thresholds are not stated here. The limited-competition route used for this purchase is relevant context for firms assessing how the Trust has sourced this type of work.
