Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Phoenix Protect" project has been completed by the Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust, a regional authority located in Manchester, United Kingdom. The tender was for the provision of software package and information systems, particularly focusing on Microsoft Sentinel. The award was completed under a direct award procedure without prior publication, utilising the NOECPC.0552 framework. The contract, signed on 15th August 2025, was awarded to Phoenix Software with a contract value of £95,000, designated under the industry category of goods. This process was recognised as falling outside the application scope of the standard directive.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in technology solutions, particularly those familiar with Microsoft products and information systems. Companies with expertise in software package development and IT infrastructure management would have been well-suited to compete for this type of contract. Despite being a limited procurement method, the project's direct award approach suggests opportunities for businesses to explore similar frameworks and establish relationships with regional authorities like the Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust for future procurement processes. Large enterprises, such as Phoenix Software, are indicative of the scale required for such opportunities, positioning themselves favourably to meet the procurement needs outlined by public sector organisations.
