New NHS purchasing framework announces list of appointed firms

Details have been announced of the firms appointed to a new NHS purchasing framework designed to provide best value and improved service levels across a range of procured services including architecture, quantity surveying, health and safety, environmental management, project management, mechanical & electrical and building consultancy. The procurement division of NHS Shared Business Services (NHS SBS), claims to have redesigned the existing construction consultancy framework which was originally only open to architects and quantity surveyors, to cover a total of 11 different disciplines and covering 12 different regions. The new framework, which was first announced last month, will apply to all 600 NHS Trusts and their commissioning organisations as they procure consultancy services for new build and refurbishment works for buildings.

Alison Kerfoot, head of procurement service delivery for NHS SBS, said:  “We’ve made the framework far more extensive so that it properly represents the differing requirements that NHS organisations and the public sector require when procuring construction consultancy services. Not only is it a compliant route to market but the framework has also opened up the sector to more SMEs.”
