Summary of the contracting process

Cell Therapy Catapult Limited procured the renewal of Ideagen SaaS electronic Quality Management System (eQMS) services. The requirement covers continued access to the software, together with maintenance and support, for the organisation’s quality management activities. This is a technology and software-related services requirement rather than a supply of physical goods or construction work. The buying organisation is Cell Therapy Catapult Limited, a public authority based in London. The supplier is responsible for providing the renewed SaaS service and associated support to meet the buyer’s eQMS needs. The procurement was structured as one lot and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making this type of requirement relevant to eQMS providers, software vendors, implementation partners and specialist support businesses.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. Ideagen Gael Limited was selected as the supplier on 11 August 2026. The contract was signed on 24 August 2026 and is active for the period 31 August 2026 to 30 August 2028. Its value is £144,717.06 including VAT, or £120,597.55 excluding VAT. The award and contract relate to the single eQMS SaaS renewal lot. The process used a direct procurement route rather than an open tender, so suppliers were not invited to compete for this award. The completed outcome provides a clear reference point for the buyer’s current software requirement and purchasing approach.

For a supplier that did not win this award, the requirement indicates established public-sector demand for hosted electronic quality management software backed by ongoing maintenance and support. A credible competitor for a future requirement from Cell Therapy Catapult would need to provide a dependable SaaS eQMS, demonstrate that it can support quality-management processes in a regulated or technically demanding environment, and maintain service continuity throughout the customer relationship. Relevant strengths would include a mature software platform, responsive technical support, structured maintenance arrangements, secure and reliable service delivery, and experience managing renewals for organisational quality systems. Suppliers should also be able to explain how their service supports users, protects operational information and can be integrated into the buyer’s existing working practices.
