## Summary

The Torbay and South Devon NHS Foundation Trust has awarded a contract for the upgrade of their Enterprise Archive system used by their cardiology department. The title of the procurement was "Cardiology System Enterprise Archive Upgrade", which falls under the industry category of "System, storage and content management software package". The procurement method used was direct, with a single tender action below the threshold. The procurement stage was completed, with a contract period starting on May 23, 2024, and ending on May 23, 2029. The tender period ended on May 22, 2024, with a contract value of £54,726.13 in GBP.

This tender for the Cardiology System Enterprise Archive Upgrade presents an opportunity for businesses operating in the software development or healthcare technology sectors. As the procurement was for a niche technology upgrade within the healthcare industry, businesses with expertise in proprietary technologies like GE Healthcare systems would be well-suited to compete. The Torbay and South Devon NHS Foundation Trust, acting as the buyer, aimed to ensure compliance with contractual terms and maintain support of the system. Being a closed procurement process, businesses that can provide specialized services tailored to the unique requirements of the trust's cardiology department would find this tender conducive for business growth.

## Notice

This purchase was for the upgrade of our Enterprise Archive (EA) that is used by our cardiology system Centricity Cardio Workflow (CCW). The current EA server is on a storage platform that is out of contractual support; a risk as any failure could cause an outage of significant duration affecting both cardiac catheter laboratories and echocardiography service. The upgraded version of the EA will also ensure it is operating on the latest version, which will be compatible with the longer Microsoft life span. The CCW application and the EA itself are GE Healthcare proprietary technologies. Therefore changes/upgrades/enhancements can only be carried out by GE to ensure compliance with contractual terms and to maintain support of the system
