UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process was conducted by The Walton Centre NHS Foundation Trust, focusing on the renewal of the Cisco Wireless DNA system. This falls under the industry category of goods, specifically dealing with licence management software packages. Located in Liverpool, United Kingdom, the contract was awarded through a direct procurement method, below threshold and without competition. The procurement process concluded with the contract being signed on 26th June 2026, and it covers the period from 1st July 2026 to 30th June 2027.

This tender provides a notable opportunity for businesses specialising in IT systems and software, particularly those offering licence management solutions. Despite being awarded without competition, similar future opportunities may arise for companies that cater to the public authority sector, notably in central government organisations. Large-scale suppliers such as SOFTCAT PLC, the successful supplier for this project, demonstrate the potential growth avenues available within public procurement frameworks.
