Summary of the contracting process

The NHS South, Central, and West Commissioning Support Unit has awarded a contract for the provision of a Child Health Information Service (CHIS) IT System for the East Midlands. The award, announced on 23rd April 2024, was given to The Phoenix Partnership (TPP) under a direct award process, as part of the London Procurement Partnership Clinical Digital Solutions Framework. This procurement, completed under a selective method through a framework agreement, falls under the category of medical information systems. The contract commences on 19th March 2024 and will continue until 30th November 2032, offering services throughout the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom. Although the procurement process is complete, this award represents an active phase that encourages continued engagement and business potential.

This contract presents substantial growth opportunities within the healthcare IT sector, primarily benefiting large-scale enterprises experienced in delivering comprehensive medical information systems. While the procurement method does not specifically favour SMEs or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSE), it offers a platform for established businesses to demonstrate advanced technical capabilities and strategic alignment with healthcare technology needs. Companies specialising in digital health solutions, especially those with a proven track record in providing IT infrastructure and support services to the healthcare sector, are well-positioned to engage with similar future opportunities arising from such framework agreements.
