Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the London Ambulance Service NHS Trust involved the acquisition of the Rotamaster software tool for sessional workforce rostering. Categorised under software packages and information systems within the goods industry, this contract was procured through a direct method as a single tender action below the threshold. The procurement aimed to provide access to the software's core functionalities, alongside support services, system updates, and user training. The contract was awarded on 10th April 2022, with a total value of £35,959.60, and spanned from 10th April 2022 to 9th April 2023. The key geographical focus was London, United Kingdom, with an emphasis on enhancing workforce management practices within this critical healthcare sector.

This tender posed growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), despite Iqus Limited T/A Rotamaster, also an SME, being selected as the supplier. The emphasis on software and support services aligns well with technology firms specialising in workforce management solutions, software development, and IT consultancy services. While the procurement method employed here was direct, highlighting the importance of building strong relationships and expertise in the field can create openings for similar businesses looking to expand into the public healthcare domain. Such contracts offer the potential for long-term partnerships, especially for businesses that can offer innovative solutions and reliable support in system integration and management.
