## Summary

Hertfordshire Community NHS Trust is procuring quality and compliance software, identified as Radar, for its organisational quality and compliance needs. This is a software supply requirement rather than a wider IT services or works contract. The Trust is based in Welwyn Garden City, and the listed delivery location is in the AL7 postcode area. The award identifies Smartgate Solutions Ltd, trading as Radar Health Care, as the supplier. The requirement is relevant to software providers whose products support quality and compliance management in a community NHS setting, particularly suppliers able to deliver the Radar solution.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Smartgate Solutions Ltd (T/A Radar Health Care). The award was made on 22 September 2026 at a value of £200,850. The contract runs from 11 October 2026 to 10 October 2029. Hertfordshire Community NHS Trust used a selective call-off from the G-Cloud 14 framework (RM1557.14). The tender’s estimated value was £200,850, with a stated minimum of £200,000. The tender deadline was 31 August 2026 at 12:00. The process was not divided into lots. The published information identifies the software requirement but does not set out a scored evaluation basis or further participation criteria.

This award shows that Hertfordshire Community NHS Trust buys dedicated quality and compliance software through a framework call-off, rather than running an open standalone competition for this requirement. A supplier seeking to compete when a comparable requirement returns would need a product suited to quality and compliance management in a community NHS environment, and the ability to supply and support that software through the relevant framework route. The selected provider is an SME, while the procurement was marked unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises; those signals should be considered alongside the actual award. Credible competitors would need to demonstrate a close fit with the Trust’s operational needs and the capability to deliver the specified software, rather than relying on general IT software credentials alone.
