## Summary

NHS England commissioned an interim technology partner to deliver the enablement phase of its Transforming and Connecting Care programme. The work is to establish secure, scalable, modern and interoperable digital infrastructure for the national programme. This is an IT services requirement covering technology delivery, with the procurement classified under CPV 72000000 (IT services). Delivery is associated with Leeds, where NHS England is based, and the United Kingdom. The requirement concerns foundational digital infrastructure and interoperability across the programme, rather than a specified standalone software product. CGI IT UK Limited was selected to provide the service.

The procurement is complete and an active award was made to CGI IT UK Limited on 16 October 2026. The awarded value is £47,660,000. The contract period runs from 2 November 2026 to 1 November 2027. NHS England procured the service through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The original submission deadline was 20 July 2026 at 12:00. The requirement is presented as a single service, with no separate lots identified. The published procurement information does not set out a scoring method or evaluation criteria, so the basis on which competing framework suppliers were assessed cannot be described beyond the selective framework call-off route.

For suppliers that did not win, this award shows that NHS England is investing in a substantial, time-limited technology enablement service for national health and care infrastructure. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to combine technology delivery with the ability to establish secure, scalable and interoperable digital infrastructure, and to work in line with a national programme’s needs. The successful supplier was a large IT services business, indicating that the work was placed with a provider able to undertake a significant delivery role. The requirement centres on technology partnership and infrastructure enablement for Transforming and Connecting Care; suppliers whose strengths are limited to unrelated IT support or individual products are less closely aligned. The award provides evidence of the buyer’s demand and the type of delivery capability selected.
