Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

East and North Hertfordshire Teaching NHS Trust procured a Microsoft Enterprise Subscription Agreement software licence renewal, classified as software-related services. The requirement is for Microsoft software licensing rather than a broader technology-support service. Delivery is associated with SG1 4AB in the United Kingdom. The buyer is the Trust, based in Welwyn Garden City. The published description identifies the purchase as a renewal through the NOE CPC Total Technology Solutions framework. This gives suppliers focused on Microsoft enterprise licensing and public-sector framework supply a clear indication of the requirement and the purchasing organisation.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The Trust selected TRUSTMARQUE SOLUTIONS LIMITED. The award was made on 21 September 2026, for £564,000. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2029. The estimated tender value was also £564,000, with a stated minimum of £560,000. The requirement was assessed through this framework call-off; no separate evaluation weighting or award criteria are recorded in the procurement details. The tender submission deadline was 7 September 2026 at noon. The procurement was classified as goods, with software licensing identified as the principal requirement.

This award shows that the Trust buys Microsoft enterprise subscription licences through the NOE CPC Total Technology Solutions framework, with a multi-year renewal requirement. Suppliers seeking to compete when this specific requirement next reaches the market would need credible Microsoft licensing expertise and the ability to supply enterprise subscription agreements through the relevant framework route. The awarded supplier is a large company, and the Trust marked the opportunity as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. That indicates a requirement oriented towards established suppliers able to support a substantial institutional licensing purchase, rather than smaller providers or general software-service firms without the appropriate framework access and licensing capability.
