Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust procured the ChemoCare System CIS Oncology, a digital chemotherapy e-prescribing and clinical information system supporting systemic anti-cancer treatment (SACT) delivery. ChemoCare is described as a widely adopted UK platform used by most NHS cancer centres, providing stable digital infrastructure for oncology services. The requirement is categorised as IT services covering software development, support and related digital infrastructure, although the procurement is recorded under goods. Delivery is associated with East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust at The Ridge, Saint Leonards-on-Sea, serving the Trust’s oncology and cancer-care operations. The procurement was made through the Clinical Digital Health Solutions framework’s Patient Support Lot 5, within the Integrated Health Economy Framework.

This procurement has been completed and awarded following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 3 June 2026 at 12:00. East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust awarded the contract to System C Healthcare Limited on 4 June 2026. The awarded value is £29,952.80. The contract runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2027. The award is active and covers the ChemoCare oncology system requirement. The opportunity was recorded as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. Evaluation was conducted within the framework call-off process; the published information identifies the procurement route and requirement but does not set out separate scoring criteria.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates established NHS demand for specialist oncology e-prescribing and clinical information technology. Competitors for a future requirement with East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust would need a mature chemotherapy prescribing platform capable of supporting systemic anti-cancer treatment safely and reliably, together with implementation, maintenance and user support. Credibility would be strengthened by evidence of deployment across NHS cancer services and familiarity with the operational needs of oncology teams. Suppliers would also need to understand call-offs under the Clinical Digital Health Solutions framework and its Patient Support category, since this buyer used a framework route rather than an open standalone tender. The requirement suits established specialist providers rather than smaller or voluntary organisations.
