## Summary

The procurement process involves West Hertfordshire Hospitals NHS Trust, located in Welwyn Garden City, UK, seeking civil and structural engineering design services for phase 4 enabling works related to the Watford General Hospital redevelopment. This process falls under the industry category of engineering services (CPV code 71300000) and concluded with an award on 13 March 2025. The procurement stage was at the Award phase, with the contract beginning on 1 July 2024 and concluding on 30 June 2026. The procurement method utilised was selective, executed via a call-off from a framework agreement, and the contract's estimated value settled at £915,694.

This tender represents a significant growth opportunity for large engineering firms with expertise in hospital redevelopment projects. While some phases have already been awarded to BDP (Building Design Partnership Ltd), involvement in upcoming phases could offer substantial business development prospects for companies specialising in infrastructure and engineering services. Although not suitable for SMEs and VCSEs, large-scale engineering firms located in the UK and broader European regions are well-poised to engage with the ongoing needs of the West Hertfordshire Hospitals NHS Trust, thereby enhancing their project portfolio and deepening their industry influence.
