Summary of the contracting process

The Christie NHS Foundation Trust bought a quality management software service: a hosted primary SaaS solution for quality management, described as a compliance software package. The requirement is for services rather than physical goods or construction work. Delivery is associated with The Christie’s site on Wilmslow Road in Manchester, United Kingdom. The buying organisation is The Christie NHS Foundation Trust, an NHS foundation trust. The service is intended to support the trust’s quality management and compliance activities through hosted software. The named solution is Ideagen IQM Professional Standard SaaS, under an order identified as INV NV3-0002149. This is a focused software and compliance systems opportunity for suppliers providing hosted quality management platforms to NHS or other regulated organisations.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 31 January 2025 at 12:00 UTC. The contract period runs from 1 February 2025 to 31 January 2027. The award was made on 8 July 2026 to Ideagen Technology Ltd, at a value of £57,876. The award covers the same hosted quality management SaaS service for The Christie NHS Foundation Trust. The recorded procurement value is also £57,876. The opportunity was assessed through the framework call-off route, rather than an open tender, and the published outcome identifies one active award to one supplier.

For competitors, this award demonstrates a defined requirement from The Christie for hosted quality and compliance management software delivered through a framework call-off. Suppliers positioned for a future requirement would need a mature SaaS product covering quality management in a regulated healthcare environment, with dependable hosting and the ability to support an NHS foundation trust. Framework participation or access to an appropriate framework route would be commercially important, because this procurement was placed as a framework call-off rather than through an open procedure. The buyer marked the requirement as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises, indicating that a credible competitor should be an established technology provider with sufficient organisational capacity for the trust’s needs.
