Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Lincolnshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust procured maintenance and support for its electronic data archive, within the category of IT support services (CPV 72000000). The requirement concerns keeping an existing electronic archive maintained and supported, rather than supplying general clinical digital services. The work is for the Trust in Lincoln, Lincolnshire. The contract was placed through the NHS London Procurement Partnership Digital Technical Clinical Support Framework, under its general clinical digital professional services lot. This is a focused support requirement for suppliers whose services cover the ongoing maintenance and operational support of electronic data archive systems in an NHS setting.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to STALIS Limited. The award was made on 11 September 2026 for £138,551.25, covering the full duration including extension options; the stated minimum value was £32,412. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027, with an option to extend by a further 37 months. The Trust used a selective procedure, making a call-off from the framework rather than running an open competition. The tender deadline was 31 July 2026 at 12:00. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No evaluation criteria or lot-specific award breakdown are recorded.

This award shows that the Trust buys specialist support to maintain an electronic data archive, using a call-off route through the NHS London Procurement Partnership’s Digital Technical Clinical Support Framework. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement would be able to demonstrate practical experience maintaining and supporting electronic archive systems in a healthcare environment, together with the capacity to provide dependable ongoing support. The framework route is commercially important: a credible competitor would need to be eligible to supply through the relevant framework lot, rather than relying solely on general IT services credentials. The award went to an SME, and the procurement was marked suitable for SMEs, indicating that smaller specialist providers can compete for this scale of archive support. These capabilities are more relevant than broad, unrelated clinical digital consultancy.
