Summary of the contracting process

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured a further year of Pulse software for multidisciplinary team (MDT) use. This is a software package and information systems requirement, bought from the Media Studio budget. The work supports the Trust’s MDT software use; the published description does not provide further functional or technical detail. Delivery is in Cambridge, where the Trust is based. The requirement is presented as a single lot and falls within the goods category. The selected supplier, Hospital Services Limited, is based in Belfast.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Hospital Services Limited. The contract was signed on 2 September 2026 and runs from 28 September 2026 to 27 September 2027. Its value is £48,858.99 excluding VAT and £58,630.79 including VAT. The process was described as below threshold, with the specific method not stated. The contract is active. It covered one lot, for the Pulse MDT software requirement. No evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements are set out in the published procurement details, so the outcome cannot be linked to a stated scoring basis or minimum supplier qualification.

For suppliers competing when Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust next buys this requirement, the award is evidence of demand for continued provision of Pulse software for multidisciplinary team use, rather than a wider hospital software programme. A credible competitor would need to supply the relevant software package and support its use by the Trust’s MDTs. The selected supplier is a large company, indicating that a supplier able to serve an NHS foundation trust at this scale has won the work; the procurement does not set out specific technical capabilities, accreditations, staffing levels or experience thresholds. The purchase was handled as a below-threshold process, making familiarity with this buyer’s procurement route and the specific Pulse requirement relevant preparation.
