Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Kent Community Health NHS Foundation Trust procured a health improvement outcomes service based on licences giving access to the PharmOutcomes platform. The platform enables pharmacies and commissioners to manage, record and claim for multiple healthcare services through one system. This is a software licensing and supporting service requirement, classified as license management software. Delivery is associated with Ashford, Kent, and the wider England area. The buying organisation is Kent Community Health NHS Foundation Trust, based at Trinity House, Eureka Park, Ashford. The requirement is relevant to software providers serving community healthcare, pharmacy services, NHS commissioners and organisations that need systems for recording service activity, managing outcomes and supporting claims across multiple healthcare programmes.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. Bids were due by 31 March 2026 at 12:00. The contract was awarded to EMIS (Egton Medical Information Systems) Ltd on 9 July 2026. The award value is £15,606 including the stated currency, GBP. The contract period runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027. The procurement is for services and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Evaluation information indicates a framework call-off route rather than a standalone open competition. One supplier is identified for the award, and the contract covers access to the PharmOutcomes platform for the described healthcare management and claims functions.

This award demonstrates a defined NHS requirement for a platform that supports pharmacy-led healthcare services, commissioner oversight, service recording, outcome management and claims. Competitors would need a reliable health-tech or software licensing proposition that can serve both pharmacies and NHS commissioning teams through a shared system. Credibility would depend on proven functionality for managing multiple healthcare services, secure handling of operational and healthcare-related data, dependable user access and support, and the ability to provide a straightforward licensing arrangement. Suppliers with experience in NHS or community pharmacy systems, healthcare outcomes reporting, service workflow management and integration with existing commissioning processes would be well placed when this requirement is next considered. The stated SME suitability also indicates that specialist smaller technology providers may be commercially relevant.
