Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust procured a remote support cloud endpoint licence. This is a software-related supply requirement, covering access to cloud-based tooling for providing remote support to endpoint devices. The procurement was for the Trust’s operational technology environment and delivery is in the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust, based in Welwyn Garden City, England. The requirement is a product-led technology purchase rather than consultancy, development or general IT support. Businesses relevant to this requirement are software publishers, authorised resellers, technology distributors and managed technology providers able to supply and support cloud endpoint licensing for an NHS organisation.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Softcat plc. The Trust used a selective procedure as a call-off from the NOE CPC Total Technology Solutions Framework. The tender submission deadline was 1 June 2026 at 12 noon, and the award was made on 29 June 2026. The awarded contract value is £149,000. The contract runs from 29 June 2026 to 28 June 2031. The recorded award is active and covers the full remote support cloud endpoint licence requirement. The outcome reflects a framework-based purchase rather than an open-market tender, with supplier selection conducted through the relevant technology framework route.

This award demonstrates sustained NHS demand for cloud-based remote support and endpoint licensing at organisational scale. Suppliers seeking to compete for a comparable future requirement would need a robust portfolio of remote support or endpoint-management software, clear licensing models and the ability to provide reliable implementation and ongoing service support. Experience supplying public-sector or healthcare customers would help demonstrate understanding of security, resilience, data protection and operational continuity requirements. Credible competitors would also need access to the relevant technology framework route, or a route into equivalent public-sector purchasing arrangements. The procurement was recorded as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises, indicating that scale and established delivery capability were important.
