Alfred McAlpine has pulled out of a £23m private finance
hospital deal in south London, writes Brian Warner.
A source close to the Kingston Hospital project said: "The company is involved in a number of PFI schemes and felt it couldn't commit to this one."
Now only bids from Jarvis and Costain are being examined by the Kingston Hospitals NHS Trust, with the preferred bidder due to be revealed in March.
Last year, the client dropped bids from Interserve, HBG; and Gleeson. The contract was due to be awarded last year, but was delayed because of rows over the retention of soft facilities management staff.
