## Summary

Rotherham Doncaster and South Humber NHS Foundation Trust procured Microsoft licensing under a further competition from the RM6098 Tepas 2 framework, Lot 3. The purchase is categorised as software packages and information systems and falls within the goods category. The requirement supports the Trust’s use of Microsoft software and licensing across its organisation. Delivery is associated with the Trust’s Doncaster base at DN4 8QN and locations in Yorkshire and the Humber, United Kingdom. This is a technology supply opportunity rather than a software development, consultancy or general IT services contract. The named buyer is the Rotherham Doncaster and South Humber NHS Foundation Trust.

The procurement has been awarded following a selective restricted procedure above threshold, conducted as a further competition. The tender closed on 17 July 2026 at 12:00. Its estimated procurement value was £261,000. The contract was awarded to Phoenix Software on 17 August 2026 for £785,000. The awarded contract period runs from 31 August 2026 to 31 August 2029. The tender was marked complete and the award is active. The opportunity was evaluated through the further-competition process for RM6098 Tepas 2 Lot 3, with the stated requirement being Microsoft licensing. The award value is reported separately from the tender estimate.

This award demonstrates substantial, multi-year demand from an NHS foundation trust for Microsoft licensing supplied through an established public-sector framework and further competition. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement would need strong capability in Microsoft licensing, software package supply and administration of licensing arrangements at organisational scale. Familiarity with framework call-offs, restricted further competitions and NHS procurement expectations would be commercially relevant. Credible competitors would also need the operational capacity to support a large healthcare organisation throughout a multi-year agreement, including accurate licence management, dependable fulfilment and clear handling of Microsoft products and entitlements. The buyer’s stated suitability assessment was not aimed at SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises.
