Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Kent and Medway Integrated Care Board has completed a procurement process titled "GP WIFI," focusing on IT services within the healthcare industry, specifically providing a public WiFi solution for GP surgeries across Kent and Medway. This service includes a fully managed service and support. The procurement, initially initiated via a tender process without prior publication, was categorized under IT consulting and support services (CPV Code: 72000000). The process was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement (GPA) and followed a limited procurement method due to technical reasons that warranted sourcing from a particular economic operator. The award was made to Spark Technology Services Ltd, with the contract signed on 7th March 2022 for a value of £214,692 GBP. Although some lots were listed as cancelled, the project has reached the award stage, covering delivery to regions across the UK, including UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, UKI, UKJ, and UKK.

This tender creates growth opportunities for businesses that specialise in IT consulting, software development, and managed services, particularly those providing comprehensive WiFi solutions and support. It is well-suited to small to medium-sized enterprises like Spark Technology Services Ltd, the successful supplier for this contract. Enterprises with capabilities in delivering robust technological support within the healthcare sector can benefit from aligning with such public healthcare projects, enriching their portfolio with public sector contracts. The reliance on a limited procurement method also suggests that suppliers with unique or specialised offerings stand a higher chance of selection due to reduced market competition for this specific technical requirement.
