Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust procured a Trend Micro cybersecurity software solution together with 10 days of professional services. The requirement is primarily for IT software, with associated software support services, delivered for the Trust in Nottingham and the wider East Midlands. The work is classified as services and concerns the supply, support and professional input needed to implement or maintain the Trend Micro solution. The buyer is the NHS Trust, whose address is on Edwards Lane, Nottingham. The requirement is therefore relevant to technology suppliers specialising in Trend Micro products, cybersecurity software, software support and related professional services for NHS or other large public-sector environments.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract was awarded to Softcat plc on 1 April 2026 for £488,520 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 1 April 2026 to 30 March 2028. The procurement value and awarded value are both £488,520. The requirement was evaluated through the framework call-off route, with the recorded procurement category being services. The award is active and the selected supplier is Softcat plc. The opportunity was identified as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and for voluntary, community or social enterprises, indicating a requirement intended for a larger established technology supplier.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust for enterprise cybersecurity software, Trend Micro capability, software support and a defined package of professional services. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need strong knowledge of Trend Micro solutions, the ability to provide reliable technical support, and sufficient professional-services capacity to deliver ten days of specialist input. The award to Softcat plc, recorded as a large organisation, indicates that scale and established delivery capability were relevant to the buyer’s requirement. Suppliers should also be able to operate through an appropriate public-sector framework and support NHS customers in Nottingham or the wider East Midlands. Relevant experience in complex, security-sensitive healthcare IT environments would strengthen a future offering.
