This contract covers various aspects such as networking, business transaction, and multimedia software packages. The tender, identified as NMC0818, was executed through a direct award method following benchmarking and an aggregate procurement exercise. The procurement stage is now in the award phase, having been completed on 11th June 2024. The contract period runs from 1st July 2024 to 30th June 2027, and the delivery location specified is London, with the postal code W1B 1PZ. The total value of the contract amounts to GBP 3,179,039.94.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in software solutions, particularly those specialising in enterprise agreements. However, as this was a direct award to Microsoft Ireland, the contract opportunities for new businesses in this instance are limited. Nonetheless, companies offering complementary software services or seeking partnerships with the Nursing And Midwifery Council or larger suppliers like Microsoft may still benefit. Businesses that are large-scale providers with capabilities in extensive software packages and systems integration will find similar tenders within this sector promising for future competitive opportunities.
