Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust procured a temperature control system for pharmacies. The requirement covers an IT software package, together with software support services, for managing temperature control in pharmacy settings. The buying organisation is based on Edwards Lane in Nottingham, and the procurement is associated with its Nottingham operations. The work is categorised as goods and concerns a system rather than physical pharmacy equipment or construction. The requirement is relevant to software providers and technology businesses supplying pharmacy temperature monitoring or control systems, particularly those able to support deployment and ongoing operation for an NHS hospital trust. The stated delivery scope includes the United Kingdom and wider locations, although the Trust’s address is in Nottingham.

This procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 30 April 2026 at 10:51. The contract runs from 1 May 2026 to 30 April 2027. The awarded value is £64,993.24. Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust awarded the contract to Checkit Europe Limited, an SME, on 1 May 2026. The award was active at the recorded stage. The requirement was evaluated as a goods procurement for an IT software package, with software support services as an additional classification. The available process information identifies one awarded supplier and one contract period, rather than separate lots or multiple awards.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates a defined NHS demand for pharmacy temperature-control software backed by support services, delivered through a framework call-off. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need a mature software product suited to pharmacy temperature management, reliable implementation and support capability, and the capacity to serve a hospital trust’s operational requirements. Experience supplying healthcare or pharmacy environments would help demonstrate understanding of temperature-sensitive medicines, monitoring workflows, alerts, records and service continuity, provided those capabilities are part of the supplier’s offering. Suppliers should also be able to operate within framework-based purchasing routes and present a support model proportionate to a single-trust deployment.
