## Summary

West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust procured the design and construction of a new hospital in Bury St Edmunds. The works cover a major hospital development, including building and engineering services, site preparation and demolition, landscaping, roads and car parking, and associated planning, design and project management. The procurement also encompasses mechanical and electrical installations and building systems. The delivery location is identified by the West Suffolk Hospital postcode in Bury St Edmunds. This is a substantial, integrated healthcare construction project rather than a standalone building-services or maintenance requirement.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Dragados Sociedad Anónima. The award date was 30 July 2026, and the contract runs from 30 July 2026 to 1 December 2034. The awarded value is £837.6 million. The requirement was procured through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The stated tender submission deadline was 12 July 2026. The tender information records a single overall requirement; no lot-by-lot awards are reported. The opportunity was marked unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that the procurement was structured for a large-scale delivery organisation. No evaluation criteria are recorded in the contracting information.

For suppliers outside the winning team, this award demonstrates West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust’s demand for end-to-end delivery of a new hospital at major-project scale. The successful supplier is a large construction business, consistent with the need to coordinate design, complex healthcare construction, engineering and building services, site works, access infrastructure and project management within one long-term programme. Businesses seeking to compete for comparable work for this buyer would need the capacity to deliver or lead a substantial, multi-disciplinary project and to manage specialist subcontractors across those workstreams. The procurement route also shows that access to the relevant framework was central to this competition. Specialist firms may be relevant as delivery partners within a larger consortium or supply chain, rather than as standalone prime contractors.
