Summary of the contracting process

The Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust recently completed a selective procurement process for an HR Case Management Tracker System, categorised under IT software packages and software support services. The procurement was conducted as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. Located in the East Midlands, UK, the final award was made to Allocate Software Limited. The contract, valued at £109,504, covers the period from 29th March 2025 to 29th March 2028, with the award officially published on 15th July 2026. This process exemplifies the careful and strategic selection by the Trust within the completed award stage.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in IT software and support services to engage with substantial healthcare organisations. The procurement method's use of a dynamic purchasing system suggests that suppliers capable of becoming part of such systems might secure long-term engagements.
