Summary of the contracting process

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured specialist financial and economic case support for the development and completion of a Full Business Case. The requirement covers expert advisory and analytical support across both the financial case and the economic case, including the work needed to bring the business case to completion. It is a professional services requirement in business and management consultancy, classified under CPV 79400000. Delivery is for the Trust in Cambridge, supporting its public-sector investment and decision-making activity. The procurement was arranged as one completed lot. This opportunity is therefore relevant to consultancies that provide financial modelling, economic analysis, business-case development and senior advisory support for major NHS or public-sector programmes.

The procurement has completed and the contract was awarded to Atos IT Services UK Limited. The contract was signed on 1 September 2026 and runs from 2 September 2026 to 1 September 2027. Its value is £14,000 excluding VAT, or £16,800 including VAT. The procurement was below the applicable threshold and the recorded procedure detail is “below threshold - unknown”. One lot was completed and awarded, with the award recorded as active and the contract also active. The award covers the specialist financial and economic case support described for the Full Business Case. No separate award or contract values are reported for other suppliers or lots.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for external support on a Full Business Case, rather than routine accountancy or general administrative services. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need to combine financial and economic analysis with practical business-case advisory skills, and be able to support development through to completion. Relevant capability includes financial modelling, appraisal of costs and benefits, economic-case preparation, evidence-based analysis and clear advice to public-sector decision-makers. Experience of NHS governance, healthcare investment decisions and the standards expected in formal business cases would strengthen a supplier’s position. The single-supplier award also indicates a requirement that can be delivered as an integrated consultancy service.
