Summary of the contracting process

The West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospital NHS Trust has completed the procurement process for the "WHHT - Datix Cloud IQ" project, focusing on the acquisition of software packages and information systems. This contract, valued at GBP 207,000, was awarded to Softcat Plc and follows a selective procurement method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The award was published on 31st December 2025, with the contract set to commence on 1st February 2026 and conclude by 31st January 2028. The procurement falls under the goods category and pertains to the United Kingdom, specifically at the delivery address postal code WD18 0HB. Though the tender period ended on 1st December 2025, the award is now in the completion stage.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in digital technology solutions, especially those capable of delivering advanced software systems. As this was a selective process for a framework agreement, businesses already within such frameworks, or those aiming to join similar frameworks, are well-suited to compete for future opportunities. Large-scale businesses such as Softcat Plc, which have expertise and capacity in large-scale software deployment within the healthcare sector, would particularly benefit from engaging in these types of public contracts to expand their market presence and client base.
