## Summary

The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) in the United Kingdom recently completed a procurement process for the "Covid-19: DHSC: NHSX - Remote Symptoms Tracking System, App and supply of SpO2 Devices." This initiative falls within the healthcare industry category, specifically for patient-monitoring systems. The procurement was conducted via a negotiated procedure without prior publication, with the contract period running from 20 April 2020 until 31 December 2020. The procurement process has an overall value of £282,218.75 and involved the urgent purchase of 20,000 Pulse Oximeters due to high demand during the Covid-19 pandemic, with the procurement officially closing on 17 April 2020.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses that specialise in medical devices, health technology, and software services related to patient monitoring. Businesses with capabilities in providing healthcare solutions, particularly those that can supply medical equipment and software like mobile applications, would be well-suited to compete for similar contracts. The procurement was part of a pilot scheme aimed at enhancing remote patient monitoring capabilities in NHS Trusts, which indicates a growing demand for innovative healthcare solutions in the public sector.

## Notice

This procurement was awarded in April 2020 for access to the "Medopad software as a service and Application" for a pilot in two London NHS Trusts.The supplier was selected as they hold the IPR or provision of their remote system, mobile application. This was provided pro bono for the period 20/04/20 to 31/12/20 inclusive. However, DHSC had to purchase 20,000 Pulse Oximeters at pace to allocate to the Pilot's patients, and these were in short supply and high demand in April 2020, as a number of countries were rolling out a similar pilot scheme. DHSC agreed one-off supply contract for these Pulse Oximeters via Huma's supply chain to ensure stock was available immediately, and configured to meet the Pilot's specification.
