Summary of the contracting process

West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust bought support for its Bloodtrack software, classified as a pathology service. The requirement is for software support rather than broader pathology services. Delivery is associated with West Suffolk Hospital in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.

The procurement is complete and Haemonetics Limited was selected for the contract. The award was made on 30 September 2026, with the contract running from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2029. The awarded value is £20,651.70. The Trust used a selective procedure, placing a call-off under a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 17 September 2026 at 12:00. No award evaluation criteria are stated.

For suppliers considering this requirement when it next returns to market, the purchase indicates demand for ongoing support of the Trust’s Bloodtrack software, rather than general pathology provision. A credible competitor would need to show that it can support this specific software requirement and deliver the service to West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust. The contract was awarded through a framework call-off, so relevant framework access would be important to competing by the same route. The recorded award was to a supplier identified as an SME, and the Trust marked the requirement as unsuitable for SMEs; these details suggest the route and buyer’s stated suitability should be checked carefully against any future opportunity.
