Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Christie NHS Foundation Trust procured project management and delivery services to implement ambient voice technology. The work supports the introduction of voice-based technology in the Trust’s operations. Delivery was in Manchester, at the Trust’s Wilmslow Road site. The requirement was categorised as project management consultancy services. This is a focused technology implementation assignment for a healthcare organisation, rather than a general technology supply contract.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to GRAVITAS RECRUITMENT GROUP LIMITED. The award date was 23 August 2026. The awarded value was £35,957.60, against an estimated procurement value of £38,500. The contract period runs from 24 August to 27 November 2026. The Trust used a selective process as a call-off from a framework agreement. The submission deadline was 23 August 2026 at 12:00. The requirement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The published procurement information does not describe the evaluation criteria or any further eligibility requirements.

The award shows that The Christie NHS Foundation Trust engaged an external supplier for a short, defined project management and delivery assignment to implement ambient voice technology. A credible competitor for a comparable future requirement would need to demonstrate the ability to manage a technology implementation through delivery in a healthcare setting, coordinating the work needed to introduce the system into the organisation. The buyer used a framework call-off, so suppliers seeking similar work should consider whether they can compete through the relevant framework route. The requirement was assessed as suitable for SMEs, and the selected supplier is recorded as an SME, indicating that this scale of assignment was within reach of a smaller business. The focus is delivery capability for this specific technology implementation, not voice technology supply alone.
