UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust commissioned services for the National Clinical Audit and Patient Outcomes Programme (NCAPOP), which is mandatory under NHS England requirements. The work falls within clinical and statutory audit services and supports the collection, assessment and reporting of patient outcome information. The buying organisation is Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, based in Swindon, and the contract supports its NHS activities. The requirement is focused on delivering the relevant national clinical audit programme for the Trust rather than supplying goods, construction or general consultancy. Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership (HQIP) is identified as the service provider. Suppliers considering comparable future requirements would need to operate in the healthcare audit and patient outcomes field and understand the requirements applying to NHS organisations.

This procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded directly to Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership (HQIP). The procedure was a below-threshold direct award without competition. The award is active, and the contract was signed on 1 July 2026, with an award value of £10,000 excluding VAT and £12,000 including VAT. The contract runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2027. There was one completed lot covering the NCAPOP service for Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. The award relates to statutory audit services. The procurement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender, and the published outcome identifies HQIP as the selected supplier. The contract is below the applicable procurement threshold.

This award indicates a defined NHS requirement for specialist clinical audit and patient outcomes work, with delivery linked to a mandatory national programme. A credible competitor for a future requirement from this Trust would need demonstrable capability in statutory or clinical audit services, reliable collection and analysis of patient outcome data, and the ability to meet NHS England programme requirements. Relevant experience of working with NHS trusts, healthcare governance arrangements and national audit standards would strengthen its position. The supplier would also need sufficient operational capacity to deliver a complete programme for an NHS organisation, including accurate reporting and dependable stakeholder coordination. The opportunity is therefore most relevant to established healthcare audit providers, specialist clinical data organisations and organisations with proven NHS delivery experience.
