Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Vulnerability Management Platform" was conducted by the United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, aimed at enhancing risk identification and remediation activities through a sophisticated software package. Classified under the CPV code 48000000 for software package and information systems, the procurement falls within the software and IT industry category. Based in Lincolnshire, the buying organisation completed this selective tender process by December 2025, with an award notice published on 14th January 2026. This procurement was executed via a call-off from the Total Technology Solutions Framework, NOE.0552, with a contract value of £54,425.05 for a period running from 4th January 2026 to 3rd January 2029.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses specialising in software solutions, particularly those adept in vulnerability management and cybersecurity platforms.
