## Summary

The University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust is seeking technology-enabled solutions for virtual wards within the Leicester, Leicestershire, and Rutland regions. This initiative aims to enable hospital-level care at home, enhancing patient recovery and optimizing hospital bed usage. The procurement falls under the medical software package category (CPV: 48180000) and is currently in the Tender stage, with a tender period ending on 4th April 2025. The expected contract period is from 1st October 2025 to 30th September 2027. Interested parties are encouraged to register and apply via the Atamis e-sourcing portal.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specializing in medical software and healthcare technology solutions to expand their market presence. Companies with innovative solutions that can support virtual healthcare delivery are particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. While the procurement is open, it's notable that the Trust is not specifically targeting SMEs or VCSEs, suggesting that larger or more established firms might have a competitive edge in this process.
