Summary of the contracting process

NHS Resolution, the NHS Litigation Authority, intends to find a future partner to support CaseHub, its core case management platform. The work centres on specialist Pega Cloud services: ongoing support and maintenance, software development, architectural guidance, training and strategic roadmap advice. It is IT consultancy, software development and support work (CPV 72000000). The requirement is grouped as one lot and concerns the platform as a whole. NHS Resolution is using preliminary market engagement to shape the eventual requirements and procurement approach, including its understanding of market capability, delivery models, commercial options, mobilisation and knowledge transfer. The services will support NHS Resolution’s CaseHub platform; the recorded buyer address is in London, but no delivery location for the contracted work is stated.

This process is at planning stage: NHS Resolution has announced an intention to procure and is conducting preliminary market engagement, not inviting tenders or committing to a contract. The engagement is intended to inform the requirements and procurement approach and test market capability, delivery models, commercial options, mobilisation timescales and knowledge transfer. The buyer’s planned engagement milestone is 31 October 2026; this is an engagement date, not a bid deadline. The single lot is expected to run from 1 September 2027 to 1 September 2032. The procurement is described as above the relevant threshold, but no estimated contract value or budget is provided. No procedure, procurement method, eligibility conditions or evaluation criteria have yet been set out.

This may suit Pega Cloud specialists able to combine application support and maintenance with development, architecture advice, user training and longer-term technology planning for a core case management system. Suppliers should consider whether they can offer a delivery model that supports mobilisation and effective transfer of knowledge, as these are explicit topics NHS Resolution wants to explore with the market. The engagement also gives prospective providers an opportunity to inform how the eventual requirement is shaped, including its commercial approach. The expected five-year service period suggests a sustained delivery commitment, so relevant platform expertise and the capacity to maintain support while undertaking development and strategic work are likely to matter. No specific accreditation, staffing level or prior-experience threshold has been stated.
