## Summary

The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) has initiated a public procurement process titled "DHSC: ASC: Case management system foundation specification," classified under the "Outpatient care services" category (CPV code 85112200). This procurement opportunity is part of the services sector and is located within the United Kingdom. The process is currently in the tender stage, with submissions being accepted until 24th January 2025. The contract period is set to begin on 18th February 2025 and will end on 18th August 2025. The procurement method used is the open procedure, and the procurement aims to acquire case management systems specifically for adult social care.

This tender presents a valuable business opportunity for suppliers in the health and social care technology sector, particularly those specialising in case management systems. Companies that provide robust, reliable, and innovative CMS solutions stand to benefit from this procurement, which aims to standardise and improve CMS functionalities across local authorities. SMEs focusing on developing and scaling up business and management consultancy services related to health could find this tender particularly beneficial due to the potential for increased market consistency and reduced procurement barriers. The open procedure allows a wide range of businesses to participate, promoting a competitive environment conducive to business growth.

## Notice

This completed foundational specification will be an extremely useful document for the CMS market as it will enable LAs to specify the requirements they need from their CMSs; clearly, quickly, and with confidence, saving time and reducing the risk aversion around CMS procurement. The greater consistency and standardisation this will create in the market will enable suppliers to access greater economies of scale and prioritise innovative development. Across both groups this specification will improve the functionality of CMSs as it promotes effective and proven system functionalities. As such we believe it is critical that we develop this Part 2 as quickly as possible so that we can provide both suppliers and LAs with critical system procurement and management guidance to begin shaping the future of this market.
