UK5 - Transparency Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Western Health & Social Care Trust, a central government public authority operating under Northern Irish devolved regulations, is managing a procurement process for the provision of an Emergency Department ICT tracking system upgrade. This process involves the historical retention, decommissioning, and read-only data upgrade of the Symphony system. The location for this contract is Londonderry, United Kingdom, and it falls under the IT services industry category. The procurement method selected is a direct award due to Egton Medical Information Systems Limited's exclusive intellectual property rights over the Symphony system. The contract, valued at approximately £136,612.44, is set to commence on 27 April 2026 and will conclude on 10 April 2028, with a pending award status as of 14 April 2026.

This tender presents a unique growth opportunity for firms specialising in IT services, particularly those adept at providing technical support for software systems with proprietary rights. While the direct award procurement method means that the opportunity is limited, businesses with similar intellectual property or technical exclusivity may benefit by understanding the procurement strategy and partnership avenues with entities like Egton. Companies focused on consulting, software development, and internet support in healthcare settings would find such contracts fitting, as they can leverage specific expertise in ICT systems pertaining to medical data management.
