## Summary

The procurement process, managed by the West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust, pertains to the acquisition of an Experian Data Management package with Address Validation, specifically tailored for integration into the organisation's Electronic Patient Records system. The project is categorised under IT software packages (CPV code 48517000) and is confined to the United Kingdom, with the primary delivery address in Bury St Edmunds, IP33 2QZ. The contract, valued at £96,452 and fulfilled under a selective procurement method via a call-off from a framework agreement, entered the award stage on 26th February 2026, following the closure of the tender period on 28th December 2025. The contract is set to run from 1st March 2026 to 28th February 2029, illustrating the timelines critical for potential suppliers to note.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses in the IT services sector, particularly those specialising in software solutions encompassing data management and validation. As the West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust operates within the healthcare industry, companies already serving or aiming to expand into this field may find this opportunity conducive to their growth objectives. However, the current contract is not marked as suitable for SMEs or VCSEs, indicating a preference for larger scale enterprises, such as Experian Limited, which was awarded the contract. Businesses capable of leveraging framework agreements and providing robust IT solutions will likely find such procurement endeavours advantageous for expanding their portfolio and establishing a foothold within the public healthcare sector.
