Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership—Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust in Cardiff, is the buying organisation for the public procurement contract titled "Maintenance and Support of SALUD Dental Management System". This contract falls under the healthcare industry category and is governed by Welsh devolved regulations, with the award currently in the pending stage. Initiated on 19th February 2026, the procurement process is a direct award, necessitated under section 41 of the Procurement Act 2023 due to technical requirements. The contract is set to commence on 7th March 2026 and will run until 6th March 2029, providing continued support for the electronic patient record system across clinical specialties within the medical field. The intended supplier for this contract is Titanium Solutions Limited, an SME based in Southend-On-Sea, at an estimated value of £225,555.01.

The direct award opportunity for the maintenance and support of the SALUD Dental Management System offers a streamlined path for Titanium Solutions Limited to enhance its position in the medical software industry. Given the technical exclusivity and the integration already established with NHS systems, businesses with specialized software capabilities in healthcare management can explore similar non-competitive avenues for collaboration with public authorities. SMEs, particularly those familiar with bespoke integrations and continuity of service in hospital environments, would find prospects for growth and sustaining long-term partnerships beneficial. This contract underscores importance in maintaining continuity in critical healthcare software systems, ensuring minimal disruption to vital medical services and trainee supervision.

Notice Title

Maintenance and Support of SALUD Dental Management system

Notice Description

This is a Transparency Notice to inform the market of the Cardiff and Vale University Health Board's intention to direct award the contract for the Maintenance and Support of a SALUD Dental Management System without competition to Titanium Solutions Ltd (formerly Two-Ten Health).

Procurement Information

Legal framework: Procured under section 41 of the Procurement Act 2023 with Schedule 5 (technical reasons)--no competition due to technical exclusivity and continuity of service. The SALUD system was procured via OJEU in 2009 and fully integrated across UDH; staff, clinicians, trainees, and students are trained and familiar with the system. It delivers a complete integrated electronic patient record, supports all clinical specialties (including orthodontics, oral surgery, maxillofacial), and is essential for managing trainees. Titanium Solutions (previously Two Ten Health) proven integration with UHB systems (e.g., PMS) avoids significant disruption and cost that switching systems would cause. Alternative systems have been assessed and found unsuitable for hospital-based dental services and trainee supervision.
