UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust is seeking a main contractor to refurbish its Apheresis Suite at Guy’s Hospital in London. The project will create a modern, expanded 12-bed apheresis treatment facility within the Haematology Day Unit on the fourth floor of the Tower Wing. It is intended to improve access to red-cell apheresis for people with sickle cell disease and provide additional capacity for the Trust’s advanced therapies programme. The scope covers refurbishment and building work in a specialist medical setting. The Trust intends to appoint one contractor to undertake both the pre-construction services agreement (PCSA) and the main works through this procurement.

The Trust invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. This is a single-lot procurement. The enquiry deadline and the bid submission deadline were both set for 18 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The planned contract period runs from 15 December 2026 to 31 March 2028. The estimated value is £2.6 million excluding VAT (£3.12 million including VAT). Award criteria and selection requirements are set out in the tender documents. The procurement is for works and covers the PCSA as well as delivery of the refurbishment by one appointed contractor.

This opportunity is suited to a principal building contractor with the capability to manage both pre-construction services and construction delivery, rather than a supplier providing only a discrete trade package. Relevant experience would include refurbishment in an occupied or operational healthcare environment and construction or adaptation of specialist clinical facilities. The project requires coordination of building work within a hospital’s haematology day unit and delivery of an expanded treatment space intended to support apheresis and advanced therapies. Suppliers should be prepared to take responsibility for the combined pre-construction and main works scope as a single appointment. The requirement may also suit contractors able to coordinate specialist subcontractors and maintain the programme and quality controls needed for a healthcare facility; no particular accreditation is stated in the available procurement details.
