Summary of the contracting process

United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust procured a patient information leaflet system: an electronic service providing leaflets to help patients understand proposed surgical procedures, treatments and associated care pathways. The requirement is for a digital patient-information service, rather than printed leaflets or clinical treatment. The stated delivery location is Lincoln, with the procurement also identifying the United Kingdom. The system is intended to support patient understanding of planned care. This is a service procurement involving information technology. The buyer is the NHS trust, which selected a supplier to provide the system. The requirement centres on making procedure- and treatment-related information accessible electronically to patients, including information about their care pathways.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Eido Healthcare Limited on 20 October 2026. The award value is £129,130.27. The contract period runs from 31 July 2026 to 30 July 2029. The estimated procurement range was £84,808.47 to £129,130.27. The trust used a selective route, making a call-off from a framework agreement. Tenders were due by 1 June 2026 at 12:00. The published details do not set out evaluation criteria or how bids were scored. The stated outcome is one active award to Eido Healthcare Limited; no separate contract-signing date is recorded.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates demand from United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust for an electronic patient leaflet system covering surgical procedures, treatments and associated care pathways. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to provide a patient-facing digital information service that supports people to understand proposed care, with content spanning procedures, treatment and the relevant pathway. The awarded supplier was identified as a small or medium-sized enterprise, although the procurement was marked as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The route used was a framework call-off, so experience of supplying through an applicable framework would be commercially relevant. The requirement is a multi-year service rather than a one-off supply of printed material.
