Summary of the contracting process

Midlands Partnership Foundation Trust bought QbTest ADHD testing software from Qbtech Limited. The software supports clinical teams to measure the three main symptom areas of ADHD and compare results with an age- and gender-matched control group; results are provided in a visual report. It is intended for patients aged 6 to 60. The requirement is for the provision of this software as a health service, rather than general-purpose software. The buyer is based in Stafford, and the listed delivery locations are in the West Midlands. The stated purpose is objective ADHD testing, supporting clinical assessment and treatment evaluation.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Qbtech Limited following the Provider Selection Regime Direct Award Process A, without a prior call for competition. The buyer recorded one bid. The award rationale was that Qbtech was considered the sole provider of QbCheck, described as the only UK-available online medical device with FDA clearance, EMA registration and CE marking for objective measurement of hyperactivity, inattention and impulsivity. The estimated lifetime contract value and signed contract value are both £37,440. The contract was signed on 1 September 2026, with provision planned from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2028 and an option stated to extend for up to 12 months. The lot is recorded as cancelled, while the award and contract are active.

For suppliers assessing comparable work from this Trust, the purchase indicates demand for specialist ADHD testing software that produces objective measures of hyperactivity, inattention and impulsivity, compares results against age- and gender-matched controls, and presents findings in a visual report. The selected product was described as cleared for use as an aid in ADHD assessment and treatment evaluation for people aged 6 to 60, with FDA clearance, EMA registration and CE marking cited as credentials. A credible competitor would therefore need evidence that its device and software can support clinical teams across the same age range and deliver validated, clinically useful results. The buyer’s direct-award rationale emphasised the absence of a realistic alternative provider, so a future competitor would need to demonstrate an equivalent capability and regulatory standing for this specific requirement.
