Summary of the contracting process

Somerset NHS Foundation Trust has completed the procurement process for an IT software package titled "POAC Digital Solution - Pathpoint". Classified under the goods category, this tender is linked to the CPV code 48517000. The procurement method employed was selective, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. With a contract value of £106,850, the process reached its award stage on 25th March 2026, with the contract period commencing on 1st April 2026 and concluding on 31st March 2028. The project will be delivered in the South West region of the United Kingdom, and the procurement process did not prioritise suitability for SMEs or VCSEs.

This opportunity provides a platform for businesses involved in developing comprehensive IT software solutions to engage with a large public healthcare organisation. While the contracted supplier, Open Medical Ltd, is recognised as an SME, businesses that specialise in IT solutions for healthcare and have the capacity to support large-scale NHS frameworks are well-suited to compete in similar tender processes. Given its location in the South West, companies with a regional presence may particularly benefit from this opportunity to expand their client base within the public health sector.
