Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust procured public healthcare information software, including software support services and an IT software package. The requirement is classified under CPV 72261000 for software support services, with CPV 48517000 for the software package. The work supports public healthcare information operations and is delivered in Nottingham, at the Trust’s Edwards Lane site, within the East Midlands. The buying organisation is Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust. The procurement is categorised as goods, although the requirement includes an ongoing software support element. This is a focused healthcare technology requirement rather than a general IT services contract, so it is most relevant to suppliers providing healthcare information systems, associated software packages and continuing technical support.

The procurement has been awarded. BCN Group Ltd was selected on 13 May 2026 for £60,000. The contract runs from 1 April 2026 to 30 March 2029. The tender submission deadline was 31 March 2026 at 12:00. The route was a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, rather than an open tender. The tender was marked complete and the award is active. The contract covers the full stated procurement value of £60,000; no separate lots or award splits are recorded. The opportunity was assessed as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The published process data identifies the requirement and winning supplier, but does not state an evaluation weighting or separate quality and price scoring basis.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates a defined requirement for public healthcare information software and continuing software support within Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to provide an IT software package alongside reliable support services, with the operational resilience to maintain a public healthcare information system over a multi-year contract. Relevant capability would include implementation or supply of healthcare information technology, technical support, service continuity and the capacity to work with an NHS trust in Nottingham and the wider East Midlands. The procurement was not identified as suitable for SMEs or VCSEs, so suppliers should be prepared to demonstrate the scale, resources and organisational maturity expected for a substantial NHS technology customer.
