Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust procured Pathpoint eDerma, a specialist dermatology software product, through Clinical Digital Health Solutions (CDHS) for the Integrated Health Economy Framework. The requirement is classified as software-related services but is described as a goods purchase. It supports the Trust’s digital dermatology and clinical workflow needs within the West Hertfordshire health economy. Delivery is associated with the Trust’s operations in England, with the buying organisation based at Gate House, Fretherne Road, Welwyn Garden City. The named buyer is West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, which will use the software as part of its NHS service delivery. The selected supplier is Open Medical Ltd.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement, rather than an open standalone competition. The tender deadline was 27 April 2026 at 12:00. The award was made to Open Medical Ltd on 11 May 2026 for £50,000. The contract runs from 20 May 2026 to 19 May 2027. The award is active and covers the full Pathpoint eDerma requirement. The process was marked as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The available record identifies the procurement route and supplier outcome, but does not set out a separate quality, price or other evaluation weighting.

This award indicates demand from an NHS trust for specialist dermatology software delivered through a health-sector framework. Competitors would need a product comparable to Pathpoint eDerma and the ability to support clinical digital health requirements in an integrated health economy. Credibility would come from demonstrable experience supplying and implementing software for NHS or similarly regulated healthcare environments, with reliable support, security, interoperability and service continuity. Access to the relevant Clinical Digital Health Solutions framework or a comparable route would be important, because the Trust used a framework call-off rather than a standalone open tender. The requirement was not marked as suitable for SMEs or VCSEs, suggesting a supplier with established capacity and specialist healthcare software capability would be better placed.
