Summary of the contracting process

NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit bought the Halo Capacity Tracker Halo ISTM software package and information system on behalf of NHS North of England Commissioning Support Unit, hosted by NHS England. The requirement is a cloud software solution for capacity tracking and related information management. Delivery is within the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is based in Eastleigh, Hampshire, and the selected supplier, Halo Service Solutions Limited, is based in Ardgay, Scotland. This is a goods procurement focused on supplying software rather than consultancy, construction or physical equipment. The requirement sits within the NHS commissioning support environment and is relevant to software providers with products that support capacity monitoring and information management for public healthcare organisations.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Halo Service Solutions Limited on 20 July 2026. The award value is £17,400. The awarded contract period runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2027. The tender submission deadline was 12 May 2026 at 3:10pm. The buyer used a selective further competition and called off the requirement from the Crown Commercial Service G-Cloud 14 RM1557.14 Framework, Lot 2 for Cloud Software. The procurement's estimated value was also £17,400. The tender was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active, and the contract was signed as part of the awarded arrangement. Halo Service Solutions Limited is the named supplier.

This award provides a clear example of demand from NHS commissioning support organisations for cloud software that tracks service capacity and manages associated information. A credible future supplier would need a mature software product addressing the same Capacity Tracker Halo ISTM requirement, with the operational reliability and information-management capability expected in an NHS environment. Smaller technology businesses may be well placed to compete, since the requirement was identified as suitable for SMEs and the successful supplier is an SME. Access to the relevant Crown Commercial Service cloud software framework, or a route allowing a comparable further competition, would also be commercially important. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate a concise, deployable cloud proposition rather than unrelated general software services.
