Summary of the contracting process

The Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust has completed a public procurement process for the renewal of Smartsheet licences, titled "Phoenix - Smartsheet Renewal," under the industry category of "goods," specifically financial systems software packages. The tender, carried out through a direct procurement method below the threshold without competition, was awarded to Phoenix Software Limited. This process, located in Basildon, falls under the central government's public authority and was finalised with a signed contract on 30th September 2025. The contract, valued at £25,830 gross, runs from 1st October 2025 to 30th September 2026.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in software licensing and financial systems software packages, particularly those capable of providing efficient, large-scale software solutions in the healthcare sector. Although this specific tender did not involve competition, businesses that align with the technological and operational needs of large healthcare institutions, such as the NHS, and those able to offer competitive pricing and innovative solutions, will find strong growth potential in similar future procurements. Large-scale enterprises like Phoenix Software Limited that have the capacity to fulfil similar contracts could further leverage their position through such procurement opportunities.
