Summary of the contracting process

The Gateshead Health NHS Foundation Trust is currently in the planning stage of a tender titled "Request for information - E-Observation system." This tender focuses on the software package and information systems industry and is aimed at enhancing digital E-observation, hospital at night, bed management, and patient flow solutions. Interested parties have until 9th March 2018, at 17:00 hours, to submit their responses via the NHS Sourcing Portal, with the communication directed through the specific online messaging facility provided.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses in the software development and healthcare technology sectors, particularly those specialising in digital health solutions and hospital management systems. Firms that can provide innovative and effective E-observation or patient flow systems may find this an advantageous opening to engage with the NHS and demonstrate their capabilities. Although this is not a formal invitation to tender, successful participation in the market engagement exercise could influence future procurement strategies and decisions by the Gateshead Health NHS Foundation Trust.
