Summary of the contracting process

United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust and Lincolnshire Community Health Services NHS Trust jointly procured a cloud-hosted contact centre platform, including support and maintenance. The platform is intended to support contact centre operations across both NHS trusts. This is a software and information systems requirement (CPV 48000000), with delivery in Lincolnshire, England.

The procurement is complete: Netcall Technology Limited was selected and the contract was signed on 24 September 2026. The award was made on 21 September 2026. The contract runs from 25 September 2026 to 24 September 2029, with an option to extend by one year, to 24 September 2030. Its stated value, including the extension and excluding VAT, is £532,594. The buyer used a call-off under the NHS Shared Business Services Patient/Citizen Communication Engagement & Hybrid Mail Solutions Framework, using a selective procedure. There was one lot. No separate evaluation criteria are recorded.

This award demonstrates demand from two Lincolnshire NHS trusts for a hosted contact centre platform backed by continuing support and maintenance. Suppliers best placed for a comparable future requirement would be able to deliver and maintain a cloud contact centre service suitable for NHS organisations, and provide reliable support throughout a multi-year contract. The selected supplier, Netcall Technology Limited, is recorded as an SME, showing that a smaller supplier won this requirement. The route used was a call-off from the NHS Shared Business Services framework for patient and citizen communication, engagement and hybrid mail solutions; familiarity with that framework and its requirements would therefore be commercially relevant. The contract’s potential four-year term indicates a sustained service commitment rather than a one-off software supply.
