## Summary

The procurement process titled "Each Baby Counts Reporting Gap" is initiated by the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) in the health services sector. This contract, valued at £139,137, involves the collection of clinical records for intrapartum stillbirths, neonatal deaths, and brain injuries in England, continuing until March 31, 2020. The procurement was conducted via a direct award without prior publication, and the contract was awarded to The Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists following the completion of the tender period on November 14, 2019.

This tender presents significant opportunities for organisations specialising in health service reporting and data collection, particularly those with expertise in maternal and neonatal health. Businesses that focus on clinical data analysis or that are capable of supporting public health initiatives will be particularly well-suited to engage in similar future contracts. The contract's implications may encourage companies to innovate and offer tailored services that align with the ongoing demands within the healthcare sector.

## Notice

DHSC has commissioned a Supplier to continue the annual collection of clinical records for all intrapartum stillbirths, neonatal deaths and brain injuries in England; and thematic analysis of the contributory factors affecting maternity outcomes by the Contractor's Each Baby Counts (EBC) programme until the Healthcare Safety Investigation Branch (HSIB) is able to report on a full annual cohort of these cases in 2020.
