Summary of the contracting process

NHS Litigation Authority commissioned services to continue migrating data to the Pega platform, with associated training identified in the procurement title. The work supports an existing NHSR project and is intended to maintain progress on a complex software migration that was already being delivered through a third-party facilitator. The service category is IT software development. Delivery is for the NHS Litigation Authority, based at Canary Wharf in London, and concerns the continuation of its Pega migration programme. AI4 Process Ltd is the named supplier. The requirement is therefore most relevant to businesses with practical experience of Pega data migration, software implementation and supporting user or operational training in a public-sector environment.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a direct award to AI4 Process Ltd. The award date was 4 August 2026. The gross awarded value is £436,104, with a net value of £363,420. The contract period runs from 19 August 2026 to 31 August 2027. The buyer chose a direct award because the previous intermediary, Labb Ltd, ended its subcontracting relationship with AI4 Process and would no longer provide the service. AI4 Process was approached to continue work it had already been conducting. The buyer also cited the complex nature of the migration, the risk that transition to a new supplier would delay completion and additional project expenditure, and work expected to conclude in October. The award used a single-supplier technical-reasons justification.

This procurement is useful market evidence for suppliers competing for future NHS Pega migration work. A credible competitor would need demonstrable Pega expertise, including data migration, software development and the ability to maintain continuity across a complex, partly completed programme. Experience of taking over or stabilising work when an incumbent arrangement changes would be particularly relevant, as would the capacity to mobilise without creating delay or additional cost. Suppliers should be able to provide technically capable personnel who can continue an existing delivery plan and support the training associated with the migration. The awarded supplier is a large company and is recorded as a sheltered workshop, so organisations with comparable delivery scale and the ability to meet public-sector project requirements should study this buyer’s future demand.

Notice Title

Pega data Migration & training

Notice Description

Contract to continue the PEGA migration utilising AI4process. This contract has been put in place as the current agreement with Labb LTD who worked as a 3rd party facilitator was ended due to them wanting to discontinue their relationship with AI4Process.

Procurement Information

The existing contract between NHSR was contracted with Labb Ltd who subcontracted the work to AI4process. Labb Ltd made the decision to cancel this subcontracting agreement and not offer the service. Due to the requirements within NHSR the services were still required so AI4process were approached directly to continue the work that they had been conducting. The work is due to be concluded in October so with this timescale the decision was made to direct award the contract due to the complex nature of the work and the potential transition time to migrate to a new supplier could potentially delay in the project and cause additional spend to the project
