## Summary

University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust procured clinical coding consultancy services to provide Codex clinical coding support. This is a specialist healthcare information and clinical coding requirement, delivered for the Trust in the United Kingdom. The procurement is classified under financial management consultancy services, although its stated purpose is clinical coding support. The buying organisation is based at Leicester Royal Infirmary in Leicester. The selected supplier is PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, a large professional services firm. Businesses relevant to this requirement include consultancies and specialist providers with the ability to support NHS clinical coding activity and advise or deliver within a hospital trust environment. The work is service-based rather than the supply of goods or construction works.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 28 August 2026 at 12:00. The contract was awarded to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP on 27 August 2026 for £480,000, with a contract period from 12 October 2026 to 31 October 2027. The award is active. The procurement value was also stated as £480,000. Participation was not identified as suitable for small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The available information identifies the requirement and procurement route, but does not set out separate lots or a detailed evaluation weighting. The outcome records one awarded supplier.

This completed award confirms that University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust buys specialist clinical coding consultancy through a framework call-off, creating a useful reference point for suppliers tracking comparable NHS demand. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable capability in clinical coding support, strong understanding of healthcare data and hospital operating environments, and the capacity to provide consultancy services to an NHS trust. The selected supplier’s profile indicates that an established, larger professional services provider was well placed for this requirement; the procurement was not identified as suitable for SMEs or VCSEs. Providers should therefore be able to operate within a framework-based procurement route, manage a defined consultancy engagement and evidence relevant NHS or clinical coding experience.
