Summary of the contracting process

NHS National Services Scotland has completed a public procurement process titled "NP610524 Out of Hours (Urgent and Unscheduled Care) System", focused on upgrading their Advanced Out of Hours Urgent and Unscheduled Care System. This procurement falls under the IT services industry category, specifically consulting, software development, Internet and support. The contract involves services for NHS Health Boards located in Scotland. The procurement method employed was a negotiated procedure without prior publication, mainly due to the absence of competition for technical reasons. Noteworthy dates include the contract being signed on 24th July 2024, with a total contract value of £155,000 GBP.

This tender creates significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those with expertise in healthcare systems. The project’s focus on upgrading an existing system that is already implemented across many NHS Health Boards necessitates technical proficiency and familiarity with healthcare protocols, making it ideal for established IT firms with experience in healthcare solutions, such as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can offer specialised, high-quality consultations and developments. The winning supplier for this contract, One Advanced, exemplifies the type of business well-suited to deliver such projects, providing a valuable case study for similar enterprises aiming to engage in public sector healthcare IT projects.

The bringing of court proceedings against the authority during the standstill period will automatically continue the prohibition on entering into the framework agreement until the court proceedings are determined, discontinued or disposed of, or the court, by interim order, brings to an end the prohibition. The remedies that may be awarded by the courts before the framework agreement has been entered into include the setting aside of the decision to award the framework agreement to the winning tenderer. The bringing of court proceedings against the authority after the framework agreement has been entered into will not affect the framework agreement unless grounds for the imposition of special penalties under the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 can be established. Otherwise, the remedies that may be awarded by the courts where the framework agreement has been entered into are limited to the award of damages.",
