Summary of the contracting process

NHS England has completed the procurement process for the "NHS UK Service Engine Optimisation" project, classified under IT software packages (CPV 48517000). This tender, valued at £194,400, followed a selective procurement method as a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract was awarded to Torchbox Ltd and encompasses the delivery to addresses within England, United Kingdom. The tender period ended on 6th August 2024, with the contract period set to run from 31st August 2024 to 30th August 2026.

This tender provides a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in IT software, particularly those involved in service optimisation solutions. Companies capable of meeting the sophisticated needs of NHS England in this domain stand to benefit from stable and lucrative contracts. However, as the tender was not open to SMEs or VCSEs, larger established firms with proven track records in similar projects are best suited to compete and succeed in such procurement opportunities.
