Summary of the contracting process

The Nursing And Midwifery Council has recently completed a procurement process for a financial solution to enhance its HR and finance platforms. This contract was awarded through a direct award, utilising the BOS3 framework, identified under CPV code 48000000, within the Software Package and Information Systems category. The procurement was carried out using a selective method, specifically calling-off from a framework agreement. The contract period commenced on 1st August 2026 and is set to conclude on 31st July 2029. The delivery address is located in London, with the postal code W1B 1PZ. The contract, valued at £648,066, was awarded to OneAdvanced Limited on 1st August 2026. The tender stage is now complete.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in software and information systems, particularly those capable of providing comprehensive HR and finance solutions. As this was a direct award from a framework, it signifies the potential benefit for suppliers who are part of similar frameworks or consider becoming part of one, as they can receive opportunities for large-scale contracts without undergoing competitive bidding. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) might find it beneficial to engage in framework agreements to increase their likelihood of future business growth, especially when such direct awards are made. While OneAdvanced Limited was successful in this instance, similar businesses can position themselves for future opportunities by ensuring their inclusion in relevant framework categories and maintaining standards that meet such contract requirements.
