Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust procured a maternity software system, classified as software packages and information systems (CPV 48000000). The requirement is a services contract for a system supporting maternity-related information and operational activity. Delivery is for the Trust in Leicester, at Leicester Royal Infirmary, Infirmary Square, with the wider delivery location recorded as the United Kingdom. The procurement concerns the Trust’s own maternity service environment rather than general-purpose software. It is therefore relevant to suppliers providing specialist maternity systems, implementation and associated software services for NHS organisations. The named buyer is University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust, which operates the requirement from Leicester.

The procurement has been awarded and is complete. It was run as a selective call-off from a framework agreement, with the tender submission deadline on 31 March 2019. The contract was awarded to EuroKing Maternity Solutions Ltd on 31 March 2019 for £436,616 GBP. The contract period runs from 1 April 2019 to 31 March 2027. The award is active. The requirement was treated as a services procurement and was recorded as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The award outcome identifies one supplier and one contract value; the evaluation basis and any lot structure are not part of the recorded outcome.

This award demonstrates established NHS demand in Leicester for a specialist maternity software system delivered through a framework call-off. A competitor preparing for a future requirement from the same buyer would need a proven maternity information-system product, the capability to implement and support it in an NHS trust environment, and access to an appropriate framework route. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that specialist software businesses can meet the buyer’s requirement despite the procurement being marked unsuitable for SMEs and VCSEs. Credibility would depend on demonstrating dependable service delivery, technical support and experience handling the operational needs of maternity services. Suppliers with a focused maternity systems offer and the capacity to support a large hospital trust would be the closest comparators.
