Summary of the contracting process

NHS Lanarkshire bought robotic process automation (RPA) services to design, develop and deliver automations, enable the platform, train staff and transfer knowledge. The requirement also includes optional managed support. The work is for NHS Lanarkshire, with delivery in Scotland. This is an IT services requirement combining automation implementation with capability-building and potential ongoing support; it is relevant to suppliers able to provide RPA expertise and work with a healthcare public-sector buyer.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Robiquity Limited through a selective route under a framework, without a competitive call-off. The award was made on 23 September 2026 and the contract was signed on 16 October 2026. The contract value is £493,568 excluding VAT (£592,282 including VAT). The initial contract period runs from 16 October 2026 to 15 April 2027, with options for up to three further 12-month periods of managed support, potentially extending the term to 15 April 2030. There is one lot. The contract is based on the supplier’s G-Cloud 15 service offering and rate card; further activities or effort may be agreed through governance and change control.

This award shows NHS Lanarkshire’s demand for an end-to-end RPA capability: automation design, development and delivery, platform enablement, staff training, knowledge transfer and, potentially, managed support. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to demonstrate the technical ability to implement automation as well as the capacity to transfer skills to NHS staff and support the service afterwards. The buyer used a framework route and based the contract on the supplier’s published G-Cloud 15 service offering and rate card, so relevant framework access and a clear, priced service catalogue would be commercially important. Suppliers should be prepared to accommodate additional work through agreed governance and change control arrangements.
