## Summary

The Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, located in Chester, UK, has awarded a single-supplier national framework agreement titled "Managed Service of Technology Assets National Framework Agreement." This IT services procurement, initiated on July 31, 2024, aims to provide a secure managed service of technology assets to public sector organisations across the UK. The primary procurement stage for this process is the contract update, following an initial award. The contract, valued at £5,000,000 and spanning 1800 days, commenced on 14 September 2020. The agreement's duration has been extended by 12 months, with an optional further six-month extension to address unforeseen circumstances and avoid significant inconvenience to the framework's users.

Suitable businesses include SMEs specialised in database and operating software packages or information systems, given the nature of the services required. The awarded supplier, "The Business Supplies Group," operates out of Bristol, showing that even smaller-scale companies can compete and succeed in such substantial national framework agreements, thereby enhancing their market reach and credibility.
