Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by the York and Scarborough Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, a public authority within the central government, involves the acquisition of clinical decision support systems through a direct award to Wolters Kluwer Health (Medical Research) Limited. This tender, identified as a direct procurement method due to unique requirements and quality standards, focuses on providing an UpToDate subscription licence, which serves as an evidence-based clinical support tool. The procurement falls within the goods category, specifically targeting software packages and information systems. The contract, which was signed on 19th May 2026, spans from this date until 31st March 2029, with the service located in York, United Kingdom (region UKE21). The total contract value is reported at £205,900 gross, with a net value of £171,583 in GBP.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specializing in healthcare software solutions, especially those capable of delivering high-quality, evidence-based support systems required to meet rigorous NHS standards. Although the direct award limits broader competition, companies in the health industry, particularly SMEs capable of advancing similar solutions, may find value in tracking such contracts for future opportunities. Despite the current direct award process, understanding the procurement rationale and delivery expectations can position other suppliers to meet the demands of similar tenders, potentially driving future industry innovation and growth in the niche market of medical support systems.
