Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process managed by the Kent Community Health NHS Foundation Trust, titled "Privileged Access Management IT System" under the industry category of networking software packages, has reached the award stage. This selective procurement, carried out through a call-off from the NOECPC framework, was aimed at sourcing high-quality goods for the South East region of the United Kingdom. The procurement method employed was selective, purchasing a solution from the framework agreement NOE.0552. The contract, valued at approximately £145,201.20, was awarded to Bytes Software Services on 26th February 2026, with the execution set to begin on 2nd March 2026 and conclude by 1st March 2029.

This tender offers significant opportunities for business growth, particularly for large enterprises specialising in IT systems and networking software who can benefit from securing contracts within established frameworks. While the tender was accomplished using a call-off mechanism, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate in such selective procurement processes if they meet suitability criteria, though in this instance, a large supplier was awarded. Businesses positioned in the South East or those capable of delivering to this region would find venturing into similar tenders advantageous.
