Summary of the contracting process

Kent Community Health NHS Foundation Trust procured a school screening software platform for integrated services across Kent, East Sussex and Medway. The system covers vision and hearing screening in Kent; vision screening, the National Child Measurement Programme, health needs assessments and Rio system integration in East Sussex; and vision, hearing, health needs assessment and Rio integration modules for Medway following its planned merger with Kent Community Health NHS Foundation Trust. This is a software package and information systems requirement, covering both the platform and the integration functionality needed to support school screening services. Delivery is associated with Kent, East Sussex and Medway in England, including the TN25 4AZ area.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective call-off from the G-Cloud 14 framework. The contract was awarded to Noveva Software Group Limited on 27 August 2026 for £546,945.67 including the stated contract value. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2029, with a 12-month initial term and two 12-month extension opportunities. The tender’s estimated value range was £166,677.77 to £546,945.67. The tender submission deadline was 3 August 2026 at 12:00 BST. The requirement was classified as goods and evaluated through the framework call-off route. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This award demonstrates demand from an NHS community health provider for a specialist school screening platform that can support multiple local authority areas and connect with existing clinical and screening systems. A credible future competitor would need a mature software product for school-based vision, hearing, growth measurement and health needs assessment services, together with reliable integration capability for Rio and other operational systems. The requirement also points to the importance of handling different service configurations across neighbouring areas, supporting organisational change, and maintaining consistent delivery across a multi-site public health operation. Suppliers with proven NHS or public-sector implementation experience, strong interoperability expertise, dependable support arrangements and the capacity to manage a complex regional deployment would be well placed.
