Summary of the contracting process

The Nottingham University Hospital NHS Trust has completed a procurement process for a "Digital Dictation Solution" within the communication software package category (CPV code 48510000). The contract, valued at £1,500,000, was awarded to Nuance Communications Ireland Limited on 29 March 2022. The contract duration spans from 1 April 2022 to 31 March 2027. This procurement was conducted through a selective method, specifically as a call-off from a framework agreement, which concluded its tender period on 23 March 2022 and is situated in Nottingham, England.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the digital services sector, particularly those that specialise in speech recognition, transcription services, and related technology solutions. Small to medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to compete, given the nature of the service and the buyer’s inclination towards inclusive procurement practices. Engaging in such contracts can potentially enhance service delivery for health organisations and expand the market presence of participating businesses.
