Summary of the contracting process

United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust procured accounts payable duplicate-payment software as a finance service. The system is intended to protect the Trust against fraud, overpayments and compliance failures within its accounts payable operations. The requirement is for software-supported financial controls rather than general office equipment or a broader finance outsourcing service. Delivery is associated with the Trust’s procurement department in Lincoln and covers the United Kingdom, Europe, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. Businesses relevant to this requirement include providers of accounts payable technology, duplicate-payment detection, fraud prevention and financial compliance software for healthcare or other complex organisations.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender closed on 9 June 2026 at 12:00. The award was made on 23 July 2026 to FISCAL TECHNOLOGIES LTD. for £74,950, including the award value. The wider estimated procurement range was £74,950 to £99,900. The contract period runs from 15 August 2026 to 14 August 2030. This was a services procurement, evaluated through the framework call-off route. The requirement was not reserved as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises. One supplier was awarded the contract.

This award demonstrates demand from an NHS trust for specialist accounts payable controls that can identify duplicate payments and help prevent fraud, overpayments and compliance failures. A credible future competitor would need proven software for transaction screening and duplicate-payment detection, with controls that can operate reliably within finance and accounts payable processes. Evidence of effective fraud prevention, overpayment recovery or compliance support would be commercially relevant, particularly in a public healthcare environment where auditability and dependable operation matter. Suppliers should be able to support a complex institutional customer across its relevant operating locations and show that their service can be maintained over a substantial multi-year arrangement. The successful supplier was an SME.
