## Summary

Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust appointed a cost consultant to support development of the New Frimley Park Hospital. The work is quantity surveying and cost consultancy for the hospital’s design, covering cost planning and reporting, change control, lifecycle costing, whole-life carbon advice, and support for the Outline Business Case and New Hospital Programme. The initial commission relates to RIBA design stages 2 and 3, with stage 3 subject to programme governance and funding approval. The work is for a new hospital scheme in Frimley, Surrey, and sits within the Trust’s New Hospital Programme.

The procurement is complete: AECOM Limited was selected and the contract was signed on 23 September 2026. The contract value and contract period are not published in the available process data. The Trust ran a further competition under the NHS Shared Business Services Healthcare Planning Construction Consultancy and Ancillary Services framework, Lot 4 for quantity surveying, using a limited procedure without a separately published competition call. Five bids were received. Evaluation weighted qualitative criteria at 70%, commercial criteria at 20% and social value at 10%. The initial commitment is for RIBA Stage 2; the commission description also refers to Stage 3 subject to approvals, and an option to extend to stages 4 and 5 on negotiated hourly rates.

This award shows demand from Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust for cost consultancy on a major hospital development, delivered through a specialist healthcare construction consultancy framework and a further competition. A credible supplier for comparable future work would need quantity surveying capability across complex healthcare design, including cost planning, cost reporting, change control and lifecycle costing. Experience advising on whole-life carbon and supporting Outline Business Cases and the New Hospital Programme would also be relevant. Suppliers should be able to work through RIBA design stages and provide commercial and qualitative evidence alongside a clear social-value offer, as all three formed part of the assessment. The stage-based scope, governance conditions and potential later design-stage support favour teams able to sustain continuity as the scheme develops.
