Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "RCoA NCAPC revised" tender, initiated by the London Universities Purchasing Consortium, is currently at the tender stage and is actively seeking participants. This open procedure focuses on services within the data collection and collation industry category, particularly for a new national clinical audit, the National Clinical Audit of Perioperative Care (NCAPC). The project involves creating a scalable, secure, and interoperable platform for the collection and linkage of perioperative audit data with UK NHS datasets. The procurement process is open until 19th June 2026, with the contract period set to start on 1st October 2026 and end on 30th September 2028. The project is primarily based in London but is relevant to the larger UK and, to a degree, internationally.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialised in data services, especially those that can offer robust data collection, integration, and platform solutions. Companies capable of developing secure and interoperable systems interfacing with NHS datasets will find this project particularly aligned with their expertise. However, the procurement has specified that it does not particularly target SMEs or voluntary, community, and social enterprises. The involved parties would benefit from being able to deliver comprehensive clinical dashboards and public reporting functionalities, catering to the increasing demand for sophisticated data management in the healthcare sector.
