## Summary

The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust has concluded the procurement process for the "PAHT - Utilities Detection Survey" under the industry category of Construction Consultancy Services (CPV 71530000). The procurement was arranged as a call-off from a framework agreement using a selective method, specifically targeting the need for utilities detection services. Located at Fretherne Road, Welwyn Garden City, the contract was awarded on 21st July 2026 and will span until 31st March 2027. The total contract value stands at £152,519.07, slightly below the initial tendered amount of £155,000. The procurement stage was an award, indicating that the tender process has been successfully completed.

For businesses specialising in construction consultancy services, particularly those adept in utilities detection, this contract signifies a substantial opportunity. With the extensive reach, involving locations such as the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, and the wider Europe, companies with established expertise and the ability to work within these regions stand well-positioned to benefit. Although originally facilitated as a call-off from a framework agreement, opportunities for collaboration or subcontracting could arise, offering potential growth for both large and growing firms within this segment. Montagu Evans LLP has been successful in securing the contract, demonstrating the opportunity scope for large-scale suppliers. This serves as a potential growth model for similar businesses aiming to engage in public sector contracts.
