Summary of the contracting process

The West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospital NHS Trust has awarded a contract for Redcentric Ethernet services under the NOE CPC Total Technology Solutions Framework. This procurement process, classified under computer-related services, pertains to a selective tender and involves a call-off from a framework agreement. The process reached the award stage, with INSIGHT DIRECT (UK) LTD securing the contract valued at £113,000. The contract period is set from 1st September 2025 to 31st August 2026, with delivery expected to occur in the United Kingdom, specifically at the WD18 0HB postal code. Although the tender is designated for goods, it is not tailored to suit SMEs or VCSEs.

This tender offers potential growth opportunities primarily for large-scale businesses positioned in the technology sector, capable of providing robust and reliable computer-related services. Organisations specialising in network solutions and having experience in large-scale public-sector projects will particularly find this contract beneficial. As the procurement process has utilised a selective method through the framework, only suppliers who are part of this established framework, with proven track records in delivering quality services, would be well-suited to compete and fulfil this requirement. Additionally, maintaining services over a year-long contract duration indicates the need for businesses with sustained operational capacity.
