Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust procured Microsoft Flexi-Care Support, a software support service for its Microsoft environment. The requirement is categorised as software support services (CPV 72261000) and falls within the services category. Delivery is associated with the Trust’s site on Edwards Lane, Nottingham, in the East Midlands. The buyer is Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust, an NHS organisation. The scope is described as the provision of Microsoft Flexi-Care Support, indicating a requirement for ongoing support rather than software supply, construction or general IT consultancy. Businesses specialising in Microsoft support and related service management would find the subject matter most relevant.

This procurement has been awarded following a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. Bids closed on 29 November 2024 at 12:00 GMT. The contract was awarded to CLOUD 21 LIMITED on 30 November 2024 for £29,770. The contract period runs from 30 November 2024 to 27 November 2026. The award is active and the tender is complete. The procurement was evaluated through the purchasing route and resulted in one identified supplier. The opportunity was not reserved as suitable for small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The buyer is Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust.

For a supplier that did not win, this award demonstrates a defined NHS requirement for Microsoft-focused software support delivered through a dynamic purchasing system. A credible competitor would need demonstrable capability in supporting Microsoft technologies, responding to an organisational support requirement and delivering dependable services for a large healthcare trust. Familiarity with public-sector purchasing routes, particularly dynamic purchasing system call-offs, would be commercially useful. The selected supplier was a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that delivery was achieved by a specialist provider rather than necessarily a large systems integrator. Relevant firms should be able to evidence practical Microsoft support expertise, service reliability and capacity to support NHS operational needs.
