Summary of the contracting process

The Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board is in the planning stage of a public procurement process for an electronic health record system for acute and community hospitals. This procurement, under the legal basis of UKPGA 2023/54, is tagged as a planned process with a future notice date set for 1st September 2026. The project is classified under the software package and information systems industry and covers multiple regions in the United Kingdom, including UKL23, UKL13, UKL12, and UKL11. The planned contract period is from 1st September 2027 to 1st September 2037. The procurement is organised by NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, and both the buying organisation and procuring entity are central government public authorities, with the regulations being influenced by Welsh devolved regulations.

This procurement offers significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in software and IT systems, particular enterprises with expertise in developing electronic health records. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are deemed suitable for this contract, which represents a substantial long-term opportunity given the ten-year contract period. Companies involved in advanced software solution design and information systems can strongly benefit from a partnership with the NHS, potentially leading to further contracts within the health sector. Participating in such a large-scale project not only provides revenue opportunities but also facilitates the enhancement of a company's portfolio and reputation within the public procurement arena.
