UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust is buying structural repair works at Newton Abbot Ambulance Station. The requirement is classified as structural works (CPV 45223200). This is a single works package for the station; the stated delivery location is in the United Kingdom. The Trust is the buyer, and the work is intended to repair the ambulance station’s structure. The opportunity is reserved for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises located in Devon, so businesses outside those groups or areas may not be eligible to participate. The repair requirement will suit construction contractors with relevant structural works capability and the ability to deliver work at an operational ambulance station.

The Trust invited offers through an open competition under the UK below-threshold procedure. The process reached tender, meaning the buyer invited suppliers to submit offers. The deadline for questions was 13 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC, and the submission deadline was 20 November 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The contract period was set from 4 January to 3 April 2027, with an option to extend by up to three months, to a maximum end date of 3 July 2027. The estimated value is £100,000 excluding VAT (£120,000 including VAT). There is one lot. Offers are evaluated on the commercial questionnaire (50%), technical questionnaire (40%) and social value (10%). Offers could be submitted electronically through Atamis.

This opportunity is aimed at Devon-based small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community or social enterprises, making it relevant to local contractors seeking public-sector structural repair work. Suppliers will need the capability to carry out structural repairs to an ambulance station and to address the requirements set out in the commercial and technical questionnaires. The evaluation gives substantial weight to both commercial and technical responses, with social value also forming part of the assessment. A contractor able to demonstrate a credible repair approach, sound commercial delivery and relevant social value commitments will be well placed to compete. The work is a focused, single-site package rather than a multi-lot programme, which may suit a capable local firm or a specialist contractor able to deliver the required repairs.
