Summary of the contracting process

The Midlands Partnership Foundation Trust is seeking procurement for a contract titled "Finance Systems," which falls under the software package and information systems category. This procurement represents an active award stage, having been signed on 6 April 2021, with a total contract value of £957,299. The procurement process is limited and was conducted without prior publication of a call for competition, mainly due to the unique administrative needs stemming from the Trust's geographic spread. The contract is intended to deliver bespoke finance systems that provide read/write access to the mainframe database and is based in Stafford, UK.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in finance and procurement software solutions. Companies that have experience in developing bespoke systems, particularly in healthcare or large-scale organisational settings, would be well-suited to compete for similar contracts in the future. The need for agile and flexible finance solutions indicates a growing market for innovative technology firms that can address complex administrative demands within the public health sector.

Procurement Information

The geographic spread of the Trust has a drag effect on the administration and accounting requirements of the organisation. Such effects are significantly greater than those of an Acute Trust managing one or two hospital sites and pose different problems which require different administrative solutions to support. The administrative demands of such an organisation require an agile and flexible Finance and Procurement system to enable the implementation of bespoke solutions to new service delivery requirements. The Trust currently operates an Oracle based Finance and Procurement system where the hardware, network, Unix based operating systems, Oracle system and Oracle Database Administration is hosted at remote data centres operated by ABS365. The Finance and Procurement system is eFinancials provided by Advanced which is also the parent company of ABS365. In addition, ABS365 provides access to the Oracle Application Express (APEX) development platform and allows the creation of tables, packages and triggers used by this application within the same Oracle Instance as eFinancials.
