UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Alder Hey Children’s NHS Foundation Trust bought MPL and software licences, described as medical software and network management software services. The requirement sits in the services category and supports the Trust’s software and network operations. The buying organisation is based at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital in Liverpool, with delivery stated for the United Kingdom. The scope was arranged as a single requirement covering the medical software package and associated network management software services. This is relevant to software vendors, licensing specialists, medical technology suppliers and providers of software support or network management services serving NHS organisations and other public-sector bodies.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. One supplier was selected: Scheidt & Bachmann (UK) Limited. The contract was signed on 5 June 2026 and runs from 5 July 2026 to 5 July 2026. Its value is £11,769.76 excluding VAT, or £14,123.71 including VAT. The award covers the single requirement for MPL and software licences, including medical software and network management software services. The contract is active, and the selected supplier is recorded as an SME. No competitive tender or scored evaluation is indicated for this award.

This procurement shows a defined NHS requirement for MPL and software licences linked to medical software and network management. Suppliers well placed for comparable work would have direct access to relevant medical software products, authority to provide the required licences, and the technical capability to support software used within healthcare networks. Credible competitors should be able to demonstrate reliable licensing arrangements, software implementation or support expertise, and experience working with NHS or similarly regulated public-sector organisations. The incumbent is an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only a large systems integrator. Relevant firms should monitor Alder Hey’s future software and network requirements.
