Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust has completed the award process for the procurement titled "Blue Prism Digital Robots - Contract Extension," under the CPV code 72260000, which denotes software-related services. Located in Worthing, West Sussex, with postal code BN11 2DH, the procurement followed a selective method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The relevant award date was 1st August 2025, and the contract period is set from 1st August 2025 to 30th July 2028. The overall contract value amounts to £471,000 GBP with the potential to increase up to £565,200 GBP. The supplier, Blue Prism Limited, will deliver the digital robot services as specified in the agreement.

This contract extension presents significant business growth opportunities within the domain of software-related services. Companies specialising in digital automation and software technology, particularly those capable of executing large-scale software projects, would find this scope appealing. However, given the procurement's specificity and the buyer's no-suitability indication for SMEs and VCSEs, it is better suited for well-established entities of a substantial scale. Businesses looking to engage in public sector contracts, particularly in the healthcare domain, will find partnering with a large buyer like the University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust advantageous for reputation and presence in the healthcare software services industry.
