Summary of the contracting process

West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospital NHS Trust commissioned a Modern Equivalent Asset Review, a financial consultancy service. The work concerns reviewing assets against modern equivalents; the procurement description identifies the requirement as consultancy delivered through the NOE Total Technology Solutions framework. The buyer is the NHS trust serving West Hertfordshire. The delivery address points to WD18 0HB, in the Watford area of Hertfordshire, with the United Kingdom also recorded as a delivery location.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Softcat Plc. The award was made on 11 December 2024, for £379,000. The contract period ran from 16 December 2024 to 30 September 2025. The trust used a selective process through a call-off from the NOE Total Technology Solutions framework. The estimated procurement range was £370,000 to £379,000. The recorded award basis and evaluation criteria are not described in the available procurement information.

This award demonstrates demand from West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospital NHS Trust for consultancy to review assets against modern equivalents, delivered through the NOE Total Technology Solutions framework. A future competitor would need to offer credible financial consultancy capability focused on asset review and demonstrate the capacity to deliver a substantial, trust-wide assignment. The procurement was routed through a framework call-off, so familiarity with the framework route and its requirements would be commercially relevant. The selected supplier was a large company, and the trust recorded the requirement as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. Suppliers whose service offer and organisational capacity match this scale and specialist review work are best placed to compete if the same requirement returns to market.
