Summary of the contracting process

NHS England commissioned the UK Rehabilitation Outcomes Collective (UKROC) database service. The work covers database and data-processing services supporting the rehabilitation outcomes collective. The contract is for the UKROC database, with the delivery location not stated in the available procurement details. The buyer is NHS England; the selected provider is London North West University Healthcare NHS Trust, based in Harrow. This requirement is relevant to organisations with expertise in managing specialist health databases and processing rehabilitation outcomes data, particularly those able to support the needs of NHS services.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded by direct award, justified on technical grounds relating to intellectual property. The award to London North West University Healthcare NHS Trust was dated 16 July 2026. The award value is £684,126 excluding VAT (£820,951.20 including VAT). The contract was signed on 29 September 2026, with a recorded contract value of £378,698 excluding VAT (£770,272 including VAT). The contract period runs from 29 September 2026 to 31 March 2027, with an option to extend for 12 months, up to 31 March 2028. There was one lot, marked as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. No award evaluation criteria are set out.

For suppliers tracking NHS demand, this award shows a requirement for a specialist database service for rehabilitation outcomes, including data processing. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate the technical ability to operate and support a database suited to UK rehabilitation outcomes work, and to handle the associated data reliably. The direct award was justified by intellectual property and technical reasons, so relevant rights, control of the underlying technology, or a convincing route to lawful access would be central to competing if the requirement returns to market. The successful organisation is a large NHS trust, but the lot was identified as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that smaller or mission-led organisations were not excluded on suitability grounds.
