Summary of the contracting process

The Princess Alexandra NHS Trust procured EDEN mortuary software, covering software-related services and the associated technology needed for mortuary operations. The requirement was categorised as goods and was delivered in the United Kingdom, with the buying trust based in England. The procurement was made for Princess Alexandra NHS Trust, an NHS organisation serving its hospital operations. The named requirement is specifically EDEN Mortuary Software rather than a general software development or hospital IT support service. Businesses relevant to this opportunity would therefore include suppliers of specialist mortuary management systems, healthcare software and related implementation or support services. The requirement was sourced through the G-Cloud 14 Framework, indicating a framework-based public sector technology purchase rather than an open standalone competition.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective call-off from the G-Cloud 14 Framework. The tender deadline was 30 March 2026 at 12:00. The award was made on 21 April 2026 to Purple Matrix UK Ltd for £43,000 GBP. The contract runs from 21 April 2026 to 20 April 2029. The tender’s estimated value and the awarded value are both £43,000 GBP. The award is active, and the procurement records the contract period alongside the award. The opportunity was marked as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The process was evaluated through the framework call-off route; no separate award scoring basis is stated.

For suppliers that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates a defined NHS demand for specialist mortuary software delivered through the G-Cloud framework. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need a functioning EDEN mortuary software offering, or a closely comparable system designed for mortuary operations, together with the ability to provide the related software services required by an NHS trust. Framework eligibility and experience of public sector technology call-offs would be important commercial capabilities. Suppliers should also be able to support a multi-year healthcare software arrangement and demonstrate that their product can be adopted and maintained within hospital operations. The selected supplier was an SME, showing that specialist technology firms can meet this type of requirement through the framework route.
