## Summary

Hertfordshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust procured professional construction consultancy services for replacing the variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems at Oak and Beech. The work is associated with delivery in the East of England.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Drees & Sommer UK Limited. The award date was 6 October 2026, with a contract period from 6 October 2026 to 30 April 2027. The awarded value is £32,000. The estimated procurement value was £28,000 to £32,000. The Trust used a selective call-off from the SBS Framework. The tender submission deadline was 5 October 2026 at 12:00. The procurement was not marked as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This award demonstrates demand from the Trust for professional consultancy supporting the replacement of VRF building systems. Competitors would need credible construction consultancy capability relevant to HVAC replacement projects and the capacity to deliver a defined professional-services commission. The route used was a call-off from a framework, so suppliers seeking comparable work should be positioned to compete through an applicable framework arrangement. The selected supplier was a large company; the procurement data does not set out specific accreditations, technical qualifications or experience requirements.
