UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured the annual renewal of licences for ADIOS and Refine, software products classified as software packages and information systems. The requirement is for continued licensed use of these products rather than a broader software implementation or support service. The procurement has one lot, covering the software licences, with delivery in Cambridge. The buyer is the NHS foundation trust serving Cambridge; the selected supplier, RX-INFO Limited, is based in Exeter. This requirement is relevant to software vendors or authorised resellers able to supply and renew licences for ADIOS and Refine to an NHS organisation. The published scope identifies the products and annual renewal, but does not describe additional technical or service deliverables.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. RX-INFO Limited was selected for the single lot. The contract was signed on 14 October 2026 and runs from 15 October 2026 to 14 January 2027. Its value is £12,000 excluding VAT (£14,400 including VAT). The tender is described as a below-threshold procurement, with no further procedure detail recorded. The requirement was handled as a waiver for the annual licence renewal. No evaluation criteria, eligibility requirements or award rationale are set out in the procurement information. The award date is not separately stated; the contract signature date is the recorded date relevant to the outcome.

This award shows that Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust buys renewals for ADIOS and Refine, making the buyer relevant to software publishers and resellers with rights to provide these specific products. A credible competitor when this requirement next comes to market would need to demonstrate it can maintain or renew the relevant licences and meet the Trust’s requirements for continued use. The scope is focused on an annual software licence renewal, rather than a broad IT transformation, so suppliers whose business includes established software licensing and renewals are the closest fit. RX-INFO Limited, an SME, secured the award, showing that this requirement was fulfilled by a specialist supplier rather than a large-scale systems integrator. The procurement provides evidence of a discrete, NHS software-renewal requirement.
