UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Hertfordshire County Council procured the provision and maintenance of NHS Health Checks software. The requirement covers software packages and information systems, together with related IT services including software support, development, internet services and computer-related support. The system is intended to support the Council’s NHS Health Checks service, with the option to purchase additional modules or functionality where these benefit the Council or keep the system current and aligned with service needs. The work is for delivery in Hertfordshire. This is a public-sector health technology and software support requirement, relevant to suppliers that provide configurable health-check, screening, public-health or related clinical software and the associated implementation, maintenance and support services.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Prescribing Services Ltd was awarded the single contract on 2 February 2026, and the contract was signed on 12 March 2026. The award and contract value is £144,000 including VAT. The initial contract period runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2028, with an option to extend for up to a further two years, to 31 March 2030. Hertfordshire County Council used a selective competitive flexible procedure with two stages. Five bids reached the final stage. Evaluation comprised price at 40%, project delivery quality at 30%, specific requirements at 15%, and a presentation or system demonstration at 15%; mobilisation was not scored. The top three suppliers progressed to stage two.

This award indicates demand from Hertfordshire County Council for a supported NHS Health Checks software platform rather than a one-off software purchase. A credible future competitor would need to provide reliable software and ongoing maintenance, support the Council’s service requirements, and offer additional modules or functionality that can keep the system up to date. The evaluation placed substantial emphasis on fixed pricing, project delivery, specific requirements and a practical presentation or demonstration, so suppliers should be able to evidence both product capability and a clear delivery approach. The opportunity was assessed as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. Five final-stage bids, all from SMEs, show that organisations of this scale have competed for the requirement.
