Summary of the contracting process

Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is procuring a digital wayfinding platform for the Moorfields and UCL Centre for Eye Health. The requirement covers supplying, configuring, integrating, testing, deploying and supporting the platform. It must provide interactive digital building maps, destination search, multi-floor route generation and step-free navigation for patients, visitors, staff and students, including accessible navigation. This is a software and information-systems requirement, suited to suppliers of wayfinding, mapping, navigation or related digital platforms. The service will support activity at the Moorfields and UCL Centre for Eye Health in London. The Trust is the buying organisation, with Akeso & Company Limited acting as the procuring entity and project coordinator. The requirement is presented as a single package covering the complete platform and its ongoing support.

The procurement has reached tender: suppliers are invited to submit requests to participate through an open competitive flexible procedure, followed by a two-stage process. Enquiries close on 29 September 2026 at 23:59, and requests to participate or tenders close on 12 October 2026 at 23:59. Shortlisted suppliers will submit one final technical and commercial tender, with no negotiation or dialogue. The three highest-ranked suppliers will attend demonstrations on 17 and 18 November 2026; the award decision is due by 15 December 2026. The contract is scheduled for 25 March 2027 to 25 March 2029, with two optional 12-month extensions, potentially until 25 March 2031. Its estimated value is £470,000 excluding VAT, or £564,000 including VAT. Evaluation is price 30%, quality 60% and social value 10%.

This opportunity suits an SME or larger technology supplier able to provide and support a complete digital wayfinding service rather than a standalone software licence. Strong capability is needed in interactive mapping, destination search, multi-floor routing, step-free route generation, accessibility and inclusive navigation. Suppliers should be able to configure and integrate the platform with the Centre’s environment, test it, deploy it and provide ongoing technical support. The competition requires a structured participation response followed by a single final technical and commercial tender, so bidders need sufficient bid-management and solution-design capacity. The evaluation places greatest emphasis on quality, including the functional and technical solution and accessibility; leading suppliers will demonstrate their platform in person. Delivery will also require compliance with the Trust’s contractual, confidentiality and ethical-wall arrangements, together with a credible approach to service levels, performance monitoring and service credits.
