UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Foundation Trust procured support and maintenance for six G620 network switches. The requirement covers software support services and ongoing maintenance of the hospital’s SAN switches, with an Essential support level providing Monday-to-Friday, 9am-to-5pm coverage and a next-business-day response. The work is for the Trust’s hospital operations in London. This is a specialist ICT infrastructure support requirement, relevant to businesses that maintain enterprise switching and storage-area-network equipment, provide software support, and can deliver structured technical assistance for critical healthcare environments. The named buyer is Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Foundation Trust.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. CDW Ltd was selected for the single lot. The contract was signed on 30 May 2026 and runs from 30 May 2026 to 29 May 2029. Its value is £17,599.62 excluding VAT, or £21,119.54 including VAT. The contract and award are recorded as active. The requirement was evaluated and progressed as a direct, below-threshold purchase rather than an open tender. The agreed service covers support and maintenance for the six G620 switches, including weekday 9am-to-5pm support and next-business-day response. No separate award criteria or additional lots are stated.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for continuing support of six G620 switches within a major children’s hospital. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable capability in enterprise network-switch and SAN support, software support services, and maintenance delivered against a clear service-level commitment. The expected operating model includes weekday, 9am-to-5pm coverage and a next-business-day response, so suppliers would need the service desk, engineering capacity and escalation arrangements to meet those commitments reliably. Experience supporting critical healthcare or similarly operationally sensitive environments would help establish credibility, particularly where continuity, rapid fault response and disciplined contract management matter. The procurement route also shows that this buyer has used a straightforward below-threshold purchasing route for a focused infrastructure-support requirement.
