Summary of the contracting process

NHS England commissioned services for the National Intestinal Failure Registry, a clinical database supporting intestinal failure services. The work covers data extracts to NHS England, including admission times, completions and waiting times, alongside clinical interpretation. Participating centres receive information on infection rates and benchmarking of their services. The registry is moving to the NHS England ORP, so the requirement continues to focus on facilitating data extracts and interpreting clinical information. The buying organisation is NHS England, a central government public authority based in London. The service is associated with the British Association for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (BAPEN), which was selected as the supplier. The procurement is categorised as data-processing services.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded through a direct award. NHS England relied on technical reasons and a single supplier’s intellectual property or exclusive rights. There was one lot, marked suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The award was made to BAPEN on 19 June 2026 for £156,986 excluding VAT, or £188,282.20 including VAT. The awarded period runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 March 2027, with a possible maximum extension to 31 March 2028 through one 12-month renewal. The contract was signed on 1 September 2026, runs from that date to 31 March 2027, and is valued at £61,020 excluding VAT, or £73,224 including VAT.

This procurement demonstrates a defined NHS requirement for specialist clinical registry operation, healthcare data processing and clinically informed reporting in intestinal failure services. Suppliers seeking to compete for similar work would need to handle sensitive clinical data reliably, produce accurate extracts covering admissions, completions and waiting times, and provide meaningful interpretation for NHS users. Experience of infection-rate reporting, service benchmarking and working with clinical centres would be relevant. Credibility would also depend on understanding registry migration and integration with NHS England’s ORP, maintaining continuity while data systems change, and demonstrating strong compliance controls to address the identified risk of non-compliance. The requirement is suitable for smaller businesses and voluntary, community or social enterprises, provided they can offer this specialist capability.
