Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Derbyshire County Council for the NHS Health Checks IT Solution, titled "NHS Health Checks IT Solution," has culminated in the award phase. The key objective was to deliver a software solution to aid GP practices and other users in community health checks across Derbyshire, except for Derby City. This contract, valued at £173,982.60 with a net amount of £144,985.50, was awarded on 10th July 2026 to PRESCRIBING SERVICES LTD, a small or medium-sized enterprise (SME) based in Norwich. The procurement employed an open procedure, and the award notice was published on 23rd July 2026. The contract is set to commence on 1st April 2027 with potential extensions up to 2032. The procurement's primary category is goods within the software package and information systems industry and centred in the UKF region.

This procurement project presents substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for SMEs specialising in medical IT solutions. With the procurement method being open, it allowed numerous suppliers to bid, ensuring competitive participation. The successful contractor, being an SME, highlights how small businesses can effectively compete and secure government contracts for technology services. Consequently, companies involved in the development, implementation, and maintenance of health-related IT systems would find similar future tenders advantageous for expanding their market presence and service portfolio. Opportunities for contract renewal ensure long-term engagement potential, promoting continuous business development.
