Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA) is seeking to procure Oracle Licence Renewals within the data services category, with the procurement process currently in the Award stage, having been initiated on 25th March 2021. The procurement method employed is limited, allowing for a direct award without prior publication of a call for competition, as Oracle Corporation holds sole technical rights to its products. This procurement is centred in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK, and has a total contract value of £275,526, split across two active contracts.

This tender presents an opportunity for growth particularly for large-scale suppliers with the capability to provide comprehensive IT and software support services. Suppliers well-versed in Oracle products and those who can ensure business continuity for critical systems within the healthcare sector, such as IT service providers and software vendors, would be ideally suited to participate. Given the lack of competition due to technical constraints, businesses with existing partnerships or contracts with Oracle Corporation may find distinct advantages in this procurement process.
