Summary of the contracting process

The Care Quality Commission bought a one-year Miro Enterprise Plan subscription for 150 users. This is a software-related service: access to Miro’s enterprise collaborative platform under a single licence. The service is for CQC users, with delivery in the United Kingdom.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. CQC used a direct award below the threshold, without competition, and selected RealtimeBoard, Inc. trading as Miro. The contract was signed on 25 September 2026 and runs from 2 November 2026 to 1 November 2027. Its value is £29,193.72 excluding VAT (£35,032.46 including VAT).

This purchase demonstrates CQC’s demand for enterprise collaboration software on a single-licence basis for a substantial user group. A credible supplier for a similar requirement would need to provide an enterprise platform subscription that supports 150 users, together with the associated licensing. Miro was selected through a direct award without competition, so this outcome does not establish competitive evaluation criteria or other supplier qualifications.
