Summary of the contracting process

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust bought MVision AI, a radiotherapy-focused artificial intelligence platform. The software automatically generates anatomical contours from CT and MR images to support radiotherapy treatment planning. This is a specialist digital health and radiotherapy-planning requirement, rather than a general-purpose AI system. The service is for the Trust in Cambridge, where the platform supports its clinical planning activity. The stated scope centres on AI-generated contours from medical images; no wider implementation or clinical service scope is described.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to XIEL Ltd. The Trust signed the contract on 22 September 2026, and the award is active. The contract runs from 23 September 2026 to 22 September 2027. Its value is £15,000 excluding VAT (£18,000 including VAT). The process was below the procurement threshold, with the procedure described as unknown. It was arranged as one lot. The published data does not state an evaluation method or award criteria, so the basis on which XIEL Ltd was selected cannot be established from the stated outcome.

For suppliers considering similar radiotherapy technology requirements from Cambridge University Hospitals, the selected solution demonstrates demand for AI that can generate anatomical contours from CT and MR images and support treatment planning. A credible competitor would need a radiotherapy-focused platform capable of fitting into this specialist clinical workflow, with relevant software and imaging expertise. The award also shows that this requirement was purchased as a service through a below-threshold route, at a relatively small, one-year contract scale. Suppliers whose products address radiotherapy planning rather than broader imaging or administrative uses of AI are the closest fit. The award identifies the Trust’s buying requirement and the type of solution selected, but does not establish particular accreditation, integration, capacity or experience requirements.
