Summary of the contracting process

The Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency is seeking to upgrade its Trend Building Management System (BMS) from Windows XP to Windows 7, as the former is no longer supported by Microsoft. This procurement falls under the goods category, with a total value of £10,200. The contract period commenced on 1st November 2015 and concludes on 31st December 2015. The procurement method involved a tender, and the tender period has already closed, having ended on 19th October 2015. The project is aimed at enhancing the resilience of critical systems to reduce vulnerability in the event of equipment failure.

This tender presents an opportunity for technology firms, particularly those specialising in software development and systems integration, to expand their portfolio in the public sector. Businesses experienced in upgrading legacy systems and providing licensing support for software transitions would be well-positioned to compete. Given the contract's focus on software upgrades, companies that can deliver high-quality technical support and effective project management will likely benefit from future tenders of a similar nature.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Trend BMS Windows 7 updrade

Notice Description

We have a number of Trend 963 BMS software programs running on Windows XP operating systems, this is no longer supported by Microsoft, and puts The Institute in a vulnerable position should we have failures on machines where it is installed. In order for us to reduce the consequences of such failures all critical systems of which Trend is included, are being upgraded to Windows 7. The Trend software must be reinstalled, and relicensed on changeover of the hardware, and results in a cost due to engineering time, and a relicensing fee charged by Trend. The Trend BMS system is the way critical equipment and Plant alarms are monitored and actioned. It also records and stores environmental parameters for the most high priority areas and equipment.
