Summary of the contracting process

Medway NHS Foundation Trust bought a specialist delivery service for its electronic patient record (EPR) programme. The requirement is categorised as goods and covers information systems and servers, alongside the associated specialist delivery work. Delivery is required across England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. The buying organisation is Medway NHS Foundation Trust, based at Medway Maritime Hospital in Gillingham, Kent. This is therefore relevant to suppliers combining EPR delivery capability with the supply, configuration or movement of information technology systems and server infrastructure for NHS or other public-sector environments across England.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded through a below-threshold procedure; the recorded method detail is ‘Below threshold - unknown’. There was one completed lot. The award was made to Cloud 21 Limited on 10 August 2026 for £799,370 including the stated gross value. The awarded contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. A signature milestone was scheduled for 24 August 2026. Cloud 21 Limited is the selected supplier for the full requirement. The published outcome identifies the procurement as an EPR specialist delivery service and classifies the main purchase as goods, with information systems and servers as the associated classification. The award is active and the tender status is complete.

This award demonstrates demand from an NHS foundation trust for a defined EPR specialist delivery service combined with information systems and server requirements at substantial programme scale. A credible competitor for similar work would need practical experience delivering EPR-related technology services, supplying or supporting information systems and servers, and coordinating delivery across multiple English regions. The successful supplier is an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only by a large systems integrator. Relevant businesses should be able to show dependable nationwide logistics, technical implementation capability, NHS or comparable public-sector delivery experience, and the capacity to support the service throughout a full annual contract cycle. The buyer and requirement provide a clear benchmark for positioning against future EPR delivery opportunities.
