Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process carried out by NHS England involves a direct award for the British Society of Bone and Marrow Transplant and Cellular Therapy (BSBMT) Database to support annual quality reviews and data requests for policy development. The contract, categorised under data-processing services within the services industry, is centred in London and falls under the completion stage. It was finalised with a pending award as of 1st July 2026, with the standstill period ending on 14th July 2026. The associated contract period is from 31st July 2026 to 31st March 2027, with the possibility of extension until 31st March 2028. Conducted as a direct award due to technical reasons concerning intellectual property rights, the contract is valued at £471,660 gross.

This tender presents business growth opportunities for organisations specialising in data-processing services, particularly those capable of maintaining high-quality service delivery within the sector of bone and marrow transplant and cellular therapy. Large-scale organisations or those skilled in managing substantial databases to inform healthcare policy would find the landscape suitable. Moreover, while the procurement method privileges specific suppliers, there is scope for similar specialist businesses to explore their intellectual property capabilities and consider appealing for future partnerships. With possible contract renewal options, businesses can secure extended engagements within the public health sector's central government domain.
