UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Medway NHS Foundation Trust procured an EPR Testing Delivery Service. The requirement concerns testing delivery for an electronic patient record environment, within the information systems and server category (CPV 48800000). Medway NHS Foundation Trust is the buying organisation. Delivery covered locations across England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, the South East and the South West. The procurement was arranged as one lot. The appointed supplier, Health Systems Support Limited, is a small and medium-sized enterprise based in Woking. The service is therefore relevant to businesses providing testing delivery and information systems support for NHS electronic patient record programmes across multiple English regions.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a below-threshold procedure, with the specific method recorded as unknown, and comprised one completed lot. Health Systems Support Limited was awarded the requirement on 10 August 2026 for £509,080 including gross value, with a contract period from 1 September 2026 to 31 March 2027. A second active award to the same supplier, for the same value, was dated 10 August 2026 and has a contract period from 8 September 2026 to 31 March 2027. The first award had a scheduled signature date of 24 August 2026; the second had a scheduled signature date of 7 September 2026. Both awards relate to the EPR Testing Delivery Service and information systems and servers.

This award demonstrates demand from an NHS foundation trust for a defined EPR testing delivery service rather than general IT supply. Businesses considering future work of this type would need credible capability in testing electronic patient record environments and delivering information-systems support across geographically distributed NHS locations. The awarded supplier was an SME, indicating that the requirement was not limited to a large systems integrator. Relevant competitors would benefit from evidence of delivering structured testing services for healthcare or other complex information systems, the people and processes to coordinate activity across multiple English regions, and the operational capacity to support a time-limited implementation programme. Familiarity with NHS environments and dependable delivery governance would strengthen their position when this buyer next requires comparable support.
