Summary of the contracting process

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured a renewal of its Atlassian cloud licences, a software licensing and licence-management purchase. The requirement is for the continued use of Atlassian cloud products; the published scope identifies the licence renewal but does not name individual Atlassian products or quantities. The award classifies the purchase as goods and identifies licence management software as its category. Delivery is in Cambridge, where the Trust is based. This is a technology subscription renewal for suppliers able to provide or support Atlassian cloud licensing to an NHS foundation trust, rather than a wider software implementation or general IT services requirement.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust selected Business Data Quality Limited, a small and medium-sized supplier, for the single lot. The contract was signed on 15 October 2026, with a period running from 16 October 2026 to 15 October 2027. Its value is £12,967.47 excluding VAT and £15,560.96 including VAT. The process was described as below threshold, with the precise procedure type recorded as unknown. The available procurement information does not state evaluation criteria, so the basis on which the supplier was selected cannot be set out. The purchase was for Atlassian cloud licence renewal, classified as goods and software licence management.

The award shows that Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust buys ongoing Atlassian cloud licences through a below-threshold procurement. A supplier seeking to compete for a comparable requirement should be able to supply the relevant Atlassian subscriptions and manage licence renewals for a public-sector customer. Credibility would rest on demonstrating access to the appropriate licensing channel, accurate account and entitlement administration, and the ability to maintain continuity of the Trust’s cloud service across the renewal period. The published requirement does not establish a need for implementation, custom development, or broader IT support, so suppliers whose offer centres on those services alone may be less closely matched. The selected supplier was an SME, indicating that a smaller specialist provider was able to fulfil this purchase.
