## Summary

The public procurement process led by the University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust involved the renewal of the Hugh Symons Scanning service. This specific contract falls under the services category with a focus on scanning services, and the procurement process has reached the award stage. The contract was awarded to HUGH Symons Information Management Ltd, with a total value of £825,000 under a selective procurement method, specifically, a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract period is scheduled to commence on 28 February 2025 and conclude on 27 February 2026. The buyer is based in Worthing, United Kingdom, with service coverage extending to multiple overseas territories including Europe and the Channel Islands.

This tender presents notable opportunities for businesses in the information management and scanning services sector. Companies with established capabilities in document scanning and a focus on partnering with the NHS will find this opportunity particularly advantageous for growth. Although not targeted towards small and medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), larger organisations specialising in comprehensive scanning solutions and information management could benefit from such procurement processes. The specific requirement for a call-off from a framework agreement suggests that businesses already within similar frameworks would be well-suited to compete.
