Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust procured a software and information-systems product: a custom addition to its Directory Manager. The requirement is categorised as goods and concerns software functionality rather than general IT consultancy or physical equipment. Delivery is associated with the Trust’s site on Greetwell Road, Lincoln, in the United Kingdom. The buyer is an NHS teaching hospital trust serving United Lincolnshire. This opportunity is therefore relevant to software developers, systems suppliers and technology businesses able to configure or extend directory-management products for a healthcare organisation. It is particularly focused on adding bespoke functionality to an existing Directory Manager environment, rather than supplying an unspecified standalone software package.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. The Trust used a limited procedure described as a competitive quotation below the public procurement threshold. The tender deadline was 1 June 2026 at 5pm, and the award was made on 25 June 2026. CLOUD 21 LIMITED was selected as supplier for £27,075 including the stated GBP currency. The awarded contract runs from 25 June 2026 to 27 February 2029. The tender’s estimated value was also £27,075. The procurement was treated as a single goods requirement, with evaluation conducted through the competitive quotation process. The award is active and the overall tender status is complete.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates demand from an NHS teaching trust for targeted customisation of directory-management software. A credible future competitor would need to understand Directory Manager environments, translate a healthcare organisation’s operational requirements into a bespoke addition, and deliver dependable software within an established system rather than starting with a blank-sheet implementation. Relevant suppliers are likely to include software houses and specialist technology providers with practical configuration, integration, testing and support capability. Experience of working with NHS or other complex public-sector organisations would help demonstrate understanding of governance, reliability and user needs. The requirement also shows scope for smaller specialist software businesses to compete through a quotation-based route.
