Summary of the contracting process

Barnsley NHS Foundation Trust, acting as the buying organisation, has procured a Doctor's E-Rostering System through a selective procurement method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. This procurement process was concluded on 30th March 2025, marking the award stage of the procurement lifecycle. The contract, valued at £157,558.8, will cover the delivery and implementation of an IT software package within the region of England, United Kingdom. The contract period starts on 5th April 2025 and ends on 4th April 2027, facilitating the software's deployment during this timeframe.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for large businesses in the IT services sector, particularly those with experience in software solutions for the healthcare industry. Since the procurement approach was selective, it underscores the need for suppliers who can provide robust and scalable solutions as part of a larger framework agreement. Companies like SOFTCAT PLC, already successful in securing the award, demonstrate that businesses with significant scale and resources are well-suited to compete for similar contracts, potentially leading to further business growth and expanded service offerings in the public health sector. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSE) might find such opportunities less accessible unless they collaborate or develop capabilities to meet similar scale and complexity criteria.
