  • The procurement relates to the appointment of a specialist provider to deliver project management, construction consultancy, and advisory services in support of developing and embedding the Capital Delivery Programme. The requirement comprises both new build and refurbishment elements, forming part of a wider capital programme to enhance patient capacity, improve operational flow, and maintain compliance with statutory and regulatory standards. <br/><br/>The scope of services includes business case development, healthcare planning, stakeholder engagement, design development, programme and project management under ProCure23 (P23), and post contract support. Services are delivered in accordance with the agreed Service Level Agreement and aligned to the design and construction programme to ensure timely delivery. <br/><br/>Due to the time critical nature of the works, and the requirement to maintain continuity of delivery across an active capital programme, the Contracting Authority has awarded the contract by way of a direct award under the NHS SBS Healthcare Planning, Construction Consultancy and Ancillary Services Framework (SBS10197).

Why this procedure was chosen
An accelerated and direct award approach was undertaken due to the time critical nature of the Capital Delivery Programme, which form part of a wider capital programme to increase capacity, maintain patient flow, and ensure compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements.<br/><br/>Delays in appointing a supplier would have introduced significant operational, clinical, and financial risks, including disruption to essential services, failure to meet programme deadlines within the financial year, and potential non compliance with NHS and regulatory standards. <br/><br/>The continuation of the incumbent provider via a direct award under the NHS SBS Healthcare Planning, Construction Consultancy and Ancillary Services Framework (SBS10197) ensured immediate mobilisation, maintained continuity of delivery, and avoided additional time and cost associated with undertaking a full competitive procurement process. <br/><br/>This approach is considered proportionate, compliant with the framework terms and the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, and represents the most efficient route to deliver critical services within the required timeframe while ensuring value for money.
