## Summary

The Christie NHS Foundation Trust bought a digital workflow service for the Greater Manchester Cancer and Diagnostics network. The requirement is a software and information systems service intended to support the network’s digital workflows. Delivery is associated with the Trust’s site on Wilmslow Road, Manchester. This is a service requirement rather than a purchase of physical goods or construction works.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Softcat plc. The Trust used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The award was made on 13 September 2026, with an awarded value of £46,480. The contract runs from 14 September 2026 to 14 September 2027, for one year. The tender’s stated estimated value range was £46,480 to £55,776. The requirement was described as a call-off order for one year. No lot split or evaluation criteria are stated in the available procurement details.

This award shows demand from The Christie NHS Foundation Trust for a digital workflow service supporting the Greater Manchester Cancer and Diagnostics network. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to supply and support software and information systems suitable for network-wide cancer and diagnostics workflows, and to deliver the service for the Trust in Manchester. The selected supplier, Softcat plc, is recorded as a large business, while the procurement was marked unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The route used was a call-off from a framework agreement, so suppliers seeking comparable work with this buyer would need access to an appropriate framework and the capacity to fulfil a defined, one-year service requirement.
