The procurement seeks to streamline existing systems into a single or dual solution, enhancing operational efficiency. The industry category is focused on software package and information systems, classified under CPV codes 48000000 and 72322000, and it is located in the United Kingdom. The engagement ends at 5pm on 30th October 2025. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in fraud management software and data management solutions. It is particularly well-suited for SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) due to its inclusive suitability criteria. Companies with innovative technical solutions that can improve the efficiency of fraud detection and management within NHS systems may find substantial growth opportunities, as the NHS CFA aims to enhance its capabilities in combating economic crime within the healthcare sector. ## Notice The NHS Counter Fraud Authority (NHSCFA) is a health authority charged with identifying, investigating and preventing fraud and other economic crime within the NHS and the wider health group. As a health authority focused entirely on counter fraud work, the NHSCFA is independent from other NHS bodies and directly accountable to the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC). THE NHSCFA currently operate two separate systems for the provision of an intelligence database and a case management system. The intention is to identify if there is a single solution that can replace the existing systems. If that is not possible then the aim would be to have two separate products that connect and align with each other to avoid duplication and operational inefficiencies.
