## Summary

NHS England has concluded a procurement process for Enterprise Architecture Services, awarding a contract to ThoughtWorks. The procurement falls under the IT services industry category, with a focus on consulting, software development, Internet, and support. The contract, valued at £9,750,000, was derived from a selective procurement method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender process was completed, with the key tender period ending on 19th February 2024, and the contract set to run from 6th August 2024 to 5th August 2026. The services will be delivered to multiple locations including the United Kingdom, Europe, and a range of other specified regions.
