Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "KSS Secure Data Environment - Metadataworks" project, commissioned by the Sussex and Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, has reached the award stage. This project, with a focus on the provision of license management software, integrates the Metadata Works Data Catalogue and Project Access Management for secure data environments. Located in Worthing, West Sussex, the procurement falls under the services category and was conducted through a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract duration is set from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2027, with an estimated value of £41,325. The process supports SMEs, although it is not tailored for VCSE organisations.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in license management software and secure data solutions. Given the focus on services, companies with strong capabilities in data management and access control, particularly those previously engaged with NHS frameworks, are well-suited to participate. The framework agreement procurement method underscores the potential for ongoing collaboration with public sector entities, aiding business growth and market presence. SMEs, in particular, stand to gain from this project, given their eligibility for participation under the listed suitability criteria.
