## Summary

The NHS North East London Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) is planning to procure an IT software platform for managing NHS-funded Continuing Healthcare (CHC) patient data, with a focus on creating a common database system across the CCG's geographical area. The project is currently in the planning stage and is scheduled to invite market feedback until 7th February 2022. The procurement method is through a tender process, with the contract anticipated to commence on 1st February 2023 for a period of three years, with a possible two-year extension. This venture falls under the medical software package industry and encompasses regions in the United Kingdom including London.

This tender presents significant opportunities for software development companies, particularly those with expertise in healthcare technology and database management. Businesses that specialise in custom software solutions, clinical management systems, or those that can provide social value through their solutions would be well-positioned to compete. The NHS is seeking feedback to refine its specifications, indicating a willingness to collaborate and potentially adjust to market capabilities, which further enhances opportunities for innovative companies to engage and grow through this procurement process.
