Summary of the contracting process

NHS England has concluded a procurement process for Enterprise Architecture Services, awarding a contract to ThoughtWorks. The procurement falls under the IT services industry category, with a focus on consulting, software development, Internet, and support. The contract, valued at £9,750,000, was derived from a selective procurement method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender process was completed, with the key tender period ending on 19th February 2024, and the contract set to run from 6th August 2024 to 5th August 2026. The services will be delivered to multiple locations including the United Kingdom, Europe, and a range of other specified regions.

This tender creates substantial opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses specialising in IT consulting and software development. The project involves delivering work packages within the NHS's core Architecture team and providing internal architectural consultancy services. As this opportunity is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), companies fitting this profile and possessing robust expertise in IT architecture and consulting are well-positioned to benefit. Additionally, firms with the capability to execute large-scale contracts collaboratively with a prominent buyer like NHS England will find this opportunity advantageous for business expansion.
