## Summary

The Department of Health and Social Care has awarded the IMS3 Contract for the Provision of Information Management Services to ATOS IT SERVICES UK LIMITED. The contract, valued at £142,346,000.00 GBP, was signed on 19th December 2022 and is currently active until 31st October 2023. This contract falls under the IT services category, with the main delivery location at 39 Victoria Street, Westminster, London, serving DHSC office locations across England.

This procurement process, initiated as a tender, presents opportunities for businesses in IT services, consulting, software development, and Internet support sectors to engage with the Department of Health and Social Care. The Department expects to further extend the agreement by 9 months for smooth transition and exit to IMS4. Potential suppliers should be well-equipped to handle complex IT infrastructure and service transition projects to ensure continuity and minimize disruptions for the authority.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

In February 2021, DHSC launched a competitive procedure with negotiation procurement exercise for a replacement provider of the IMS3 service. This exercise is on track and DHSC expect to award the Contract within expected timescales (with the assumption that the negotiation phase is not invoked). Whilst the transition to the new supplier is feasible under the IMS3 Contract term there remain risks that it may not be complete in this timeframe which would impact on service continuity and cause significant disruption for the authority.
