This initiative, classified under ‘IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support’ among other categories, is intended to enhance healthcare delivery through improved digital accessibility. The project aims to help citizens manage their health and care more effectively while streamlining provider workflows. Located in Cambridgeshire, this procurement process has been temporarily paused due to various strategic considerations, with the next update expected by 15th October 2025. The anticipated contract period is from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2031, with the possibility of renewal. The overall project has an estimated value of £10 million. This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in IT services, software development, and healthcare solutions. Companies that can deliver innovative digital strategies, contribute to the NHS’s digital transformation goals, and offer scalable and efficient IT infrastructures are likely to be well-positioned to benefit from this opportunity. Engaging with this procurement process can pave the way for long-term partnerships with the NHS, enabling growth and expansion within the public healthcare sector. Businesses that align with NHS goals and compliance requirements will find this a lucrative chance to showcase their capabilities in enhancing public health through advanced digital solutions. ## Notice Due to a number of current factors (e.g. NHS 10 year plan, collaborative work with the NHS App team, ongoing local engagement and ICB re-configuration etc.) a decision has been made to temporarily pause the procurement for at least 3 months. As soon as we have further information, we will inform all Suppliers accordingly with the appropriate notices. We are looking for a Partner to help us deliver a Digital Front Door (DFD) enabling citizens to manage their health and care and local providers to optimise workflow. The DFD aims to provide access to a set of products, services, and relationships with partners in the delivery of health and care which help us co-ordinate care, personalise interventions and actions and enable us to centralise some services to make them more efficient.
