## Summary

Lancashire County Council is currently in the planning stage of a public procurement process for the "PharmaOutcomes Multiple Service Licence". This tender focuses on the procurement of information systems and IT services, specifically aimed at integrating pharmacy referrals and prescriptions within a unified system used by most pharmacies across Lancashire. The process invites interested suppliers to engage by providing an overview of their solutions by 31st December 2025, highlighting how they meet the outlined requirements. The project is categorised under services and is expected to run from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2027, with a potential extension until 2029. This procurement is below the threshold value with a gross amount of GBP 33,600, indicating a focused investment into local IT infrastructure.

Interested parties are encouraged to engage early to tailor their proposals effectively and demonstrate their capacity to deliver quality IT services suited to the public health infrastructure of Lancashire.
