This public procurement process involves the United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust as the contracting authority, focusing on the procurement of a "Real Time Dynamic Identity Vulnerability & Security Platform" under the goods category, specifically software package and information systems. The procurement was conducted through a selective method, via a call-off from the Total Technology Framework NOE.0552. Located in Lincoln, England, the process reached the award stage with key dates including the tender period ending on 4th March 2026, and the contract commencing on 1st May 2026 and concluding on 30th April 2029.
