Summary of the contracting process

Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board procured software supply services for a Rheumatology Patient Administration System (PAS), described as Rheumatology Cellma licences. The requirement covers cloud software to support rheumatology patient administration within the health board’s service area in Wales. The system is supplied through the G-Cloud framework’s cloud software category and is intended for use by the health board as a healthcare organisation. The requirement is therefore relevant to suppliers of specialist clinical administration systems, patient administration software, cloud-hosted healthcare applications and associated software supply services. Businesses with experience delivering rheumatology or wider outpatient administration systems to NHS or comparable healthcare organisations would be closest to the subject matter. The named buyer is also identified as a central purchasing body.

The procurement has been awarded and the resulting contract is active. Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board directly awarded the contract to Riomed Limited through the G-Cloud 14 Framework, using a limited procedure without prior publication of a competition notice. The contract was signed on 19 August 2026 for £35,676.10. The tender’s stated rationale was that the services could be provided only by a particular operator because of a lack of competition for technical reasons. The procurement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. One bid was recorded, submitted electronically by a non-SME supplier. Price was the stated award criterion. The related lot is recorded as cancelled, although the award and contract are active.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for specialist rheumatology patient administration software within a Welsh university health board. A credible future competitor would need a functioning cloud-based PAS with capabilities suited to rheumatology workflows, together with the ability to supply and support Cellma or an interoperable alternative. The technical-exclusivity rationale means that product architecture, existing integrations, data compatibility and continuity of clinical administration would be important evidence to address. Suppliers should also understand how to work through the G-Cloud cloud software category and meet its framework terms. The single recorded bid and award to a large supplier indicate that scale and established delivery capability may matter, while a price-based evaluation shows that commercially competitive pricing would be central to any comparable procurement.
