## Summary

Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust is procuring building works to remodel its existing estate and create a new Mental Health Emergency Department. The requirement is a construction and refurbishment project for healthcare premises, including hospital facilities construction, construction work relating to health buildings and overhaul or refurbishment work. The work is to be delivered in the United Kingdom. It is a single requirement rather than a group of separate service or supply packages. Businesses suited to this opportunity will be those able to undertake substantial building alterations in an operational or healthcare-related estate and deliver the physical works needed to convert existing accommodation into a dedicated mental health emergency department.

The process has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It has one lot. The tender value is £2,500,000 excluding VAT and £3,000,000 including VAT. Questions could be submitted until 18 September 2026 at 12:00, and offers were due by 12 October 2026 at 12:00. The contract period is from 11 January 2027 to 1 October 2027. Electronic submission is allowed. Bids are evaluated on quality at 50%, social value at 10% and financial considerations at 40%. The opportunity is identified as works and is below the applicable threshold. The lot is described as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This opportunity suits construction contractors with experience in building alterations, refurbishment and the delivery of hospital or other health-related facilities. Relevant capability includes remodelling existing buildings, coordinating construction activities and producing a completed mental health emergency department from an existing estate. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate the technical competence, project management and delivery capacity needed for a substantial healthcare building project. The evaluation gives greater weight to quality than price, with a separate social value element, so bidders will need a credible delivery approach alongside competitive financial terms. The requirement is explicitly suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises, making it accessible beyond major national contractors.
