## Summary

The University Hospitals Dorset NHS Foundation Trust has completed the procurement process for a Staff Management System under the Locum Platform Services Agreement. This tender falls within the industry category of software packages and information systems, and it was conducted through a selective procurement method with a framework agreement call-off. Located in Poole, United Kingdom, the procurement stage is currently at the award phase, which was actively concluded on 27th January 2026.
