Summary of the contracting process

The Cardiff and Vale University Health Board has concluded a procurement process with the finalisation of the "Medicode 360 Software License and Support Agreement." This contract, valued at approximately £150,817.40, aims to ensure the continuity of essential clinical coding software services within the Health sector. The procurement falls under the 'Health' industry category and the 'goods' main procurement category, with the University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff serving as the delivery location. The process was completed without prior publication of competition and employed a direct award via the CCS framework to preserve service continuity. The contract was signed on 19th December 2025, with the procurement stage now marked as complete.

This procurement process opens avenues for businesses involved in medical software solutions to showcase their capabilities for maintaining and improving critical clinical coding functions. It specifically favours large enterprises due to the specialised nature of the software involved and the necessity to align with statutory reporting requirements and healthcare standards. Companies proficient in health-related software application development and support, particularly those catering to clinical coding, have a substantial opportunity to engage with credible healthcare authorities like the Cardiff and Vale University Health Board to secure future contracts and enhance their market presence in the UK health sector.

Procurement Information

A direct award via the CCS framework is justified as it provides a fully compliant and efficient route to secure continuity of the highly specialised Medicode 360 clinical coding software, which is essential for maintaining accurate HRG grouping, SNOMED CT mapping and statutory reporting; the previous contract had expired, and awarding through the framework avoids service disruption and mitigates clinical and operational risks identified in the procurement process, while also ensuring alignment with procurement regulations and minimising administrative burden, particularly given the limited supplier market and urgency to maintain uninterrupted coding functionality for the Health Board.
