Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement contracting process for the UHB AIDRS project has been completed by University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust. This contract, valued at approximately £55,000, pertains to the delivery of IT software package services located in the West Midlands, United Kingdom. It involved conducting two user research workshops and delivering prioritised enhancements. The project was executed through a selective procurement method, specifically as a call-off from a framework agreement. The award was made on 2nd July 2025, with the contract period running from 12th May 2025 to 31st July 2025. The tender was classified under the CPV code 48517000, indicating its relevance to the IT software package industry.

This tender opportunity represents significant potential for businesses specialising in IT software services, especially those with a focus on conducting research and enhancement projects. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly well-suited to compete in such tenders, as the procurement process was designed to accommodate them. Businesses that can offer time and materials-based service delivery could stand to gain from participating in similar future opportunities. The awarded supplier, CGI IT UK Limited, is a large-scale organisation, which indicates the scale and expertise required; however, the inclusion of SMEs suggests a competitive landscape conducive to business growth.
