Summary of the contracting process

The Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust initiated a procurement process titled "E-Rostering" for an online e-rostering system aimed at improving staff management. Categorised under IT services such as consulting and software development, the service is expected to cater to regions including the UK, Europe, and other territories. The procurement process followed a selective method through a call-off from a framework agreement and is currently in the award stage, completed with an active status as of 1st September 2025. The project has an allocated budget of £2,626,609, with the contract period extending from 15th August 2025 to 14th August 2028. The contract was awarded to SOFTCAT PLC, marking the procurement as complete.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the IT sector, particularly those focusing on consulting, software development, and support services.
