## Summary

The Christie NHS Foundation Trust procured a measured-term contract for minor construction and engineering works, called off as required. The work is for the Trust’s estate and is delivered in Manchester; the procurement describes the requirement as minor works but does not identify specific work packages or sites. The contract is a route for commissioning individual jobs under an ongoing arrangement, rather than a single defined construction project. The buying organisation is The Christie NHS Foundation Trust, a healthcare provider based in Manchester. The awarded work falls within construction and engineering works (CPV 45220000).

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following below-threshold limited competition. Novus Property Solutions Limited was selected for the single lot. The award date was 7 October 2026, with a gross awarded value of £4.68 million (£3.9 million excluding VAT). The contract period runs from 19 October 2026 to 18 October 2029. Three bids were received and all three reached the final stage; two final-stage bids came from small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active. The competition was limited rather than open, and the published outcome records the successful supplier and the contract’s duration and value.

For suppliers assessing comparable future work for The Christie NHS Foundation Trust, this award demonstrates demand for a continuing minor-works service delivered through a measured-term arrangement. A credible competitor would need to undertake a range of construction and engineering jobs on a call-off basis and manage work across the Trust’s Manchester estate. The award followed limited competition, with three suppliers reaching the final stage, including two SMEs, showing that smaller businesses competed alongside larger providers. Suppliers should be prepared to demonstrate the capacity to respond to separate minor-work requirements over an ongoing contract, rather than relying on expertise in one standalone project. The available scope does not identify particular trades, technical standards or accreditations, so relevance depends on a supplier’s fit with general minor works and construction delivery.
