Opportunity overview
Sheffield Health Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust is undertaking early market engagement to identify suitably experienced Principal Contractors who may be interested in tendering for a forthcoming refurbishment project, subject to confirmation of funding.
The proposed project involves the refurbishment and conversion of a currently vacant health centre into a Neighbourhood Mental Health Centre.
A decision on whether funding is available to enable the project to proceed is anticipated at the end of October 2026.
Should funding be confirmed, the Trust intends to progress the project at pace and therefore wishes to engage with the market in advance to identify suitably qualified, experienced and interested Principal Contractors capable of supporting the anticipated programme.
