The contract, spanning 5 years with no extension option, has been awarded through the NHS Shared Business Services Framework Digital Workplace Solutions with the reference SBS/19/AB/WAB/9411. This limited procurement process did not call for prior publication of competition. The awarded contract, valued at GBP 85,000, was signed on 6th February 2025 and covers the region of Dudley within the UKG sector. The main procurement category is services, with the description specifying the provision of licenses for Infrastructure Management and Security Information And Event Management (SIEM), along with installation, implementation, training, and ongoing support.
