UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

East and North Hertfordshire Teaching NHS Trust procured maintenance and support for its Dawn AC anticoagulation software. This is a software-related service supporting the Trust’s use of the system for anticoagulation care. The buying organisation is East and North Hertfordshire Teaching NHS Trust, an NHS provider based at Lister Hospital in Stevenage. The contract concerns software support rather than the supply of new software or a broader IT service.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. The Trust awarded the work to 4S Information Systems Limited through a direct award without competition, approved under a waiver in line with the Trust’s standing financial instructions. The Trust signed the contract on 27 July 2026. The contract runs from 1 August 2026 to 30 July 2027. Its value is £10,745.21 excluding VAT (£12,894.25 including VAT). There was one lot, covering the maintenance and support service. No separate award date or evaluation criteria are recorded; the direct award route means the procurement was not evaluated through a competitive tender.

This award shows demand at East and North Hertfordshire Teaching NHS Trust for specialist maintenance and support of the Dawn AC anticoagulation system. Suppliers seeking to compete for a comparable future requirement would need credible expertise in supporting this specific software, and the ability to maintain reliable service for a clinical system used in anticoagulation care. The selected supplier was an established, large business, indicating that the Trust’s requirement was fulfilled by a supplier with the capacity to provide ongoing software support. The procurement used a waiver and a non-competitive direct award, so it does not establish that the Trust assessed competing technical or commercial proposals. For future work, relevant product knowledge, dependable support capability and experience serving an NHS organisation are the most pertinent credentials.
