Summary of the contracting process

Surrey and Borders Partnership NHS Foundation Trust procured endpoint security software licences to protect its trust network. The requirement is for Absolute Security licences, within the broader category of data security software. The stated delivery address is in Leatherhead, Surrey, and the procurement also lists wider delivery locations including the United Kingdom, Europe and elsewhere. The purchase was treated as a service. The buyer is an NHS foundation trust, so this is a network-protection requirement in a healthcare organisation rather than a general-purpose software supply. Dell Corporation Limited was selected to provide the licences.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Dell Corporation Limited. The award was made on 25 September 2026, at a value of £26,724. The contract period runs from 9 September 2026 to 8 September 2027. The buyer used a direct award through the RM6098 Technology Products and Associated Services framework; the procurement is described as a framework call-off. The tender response deadline was 8 September 2026. This was a single requirement, with no separate lots described. Small and medium-sized businesses were considered suitable. The award information identifies the selected supplier and records the award as active.

For suppliers competing when Surrey and Borders Partnership NHS Foundation Trust next sources this requirement, the evidence points to a focused endpoint-security licence supply for protecting an NHS trust network, rather than a broad IT transformation or managed security programme. Credibility will depend on offering software that provides the required network protection and on being able to supply the licences through the Technology Products and Associated Services framework route used here. The successful supplier was a large technology company, demonstrating that the buyer selected an established provider; smaller firms were also deemed suitable to participate. Businesses with relevant endpoint-security products, public-sector framework access and the capacity to support an NHS organisation’s network environment are the closest fit.
