## Summary

Aneurin Bevan University Health Board procured software support services through an enterprise licence agreement. The requirement was to consolidate multiple software agreements into one Cisco contract, simplifying management and governance under a single framework. It included Cisco licensing and associated support, together with licence management software. The service is for use at the Health Board’s sites in Wales. The buyer is Aneurin Bevan University Health Board, whose headquarters are in Newport. This is a technology support and licensing requirement rather than a general-purpose IT contract: relevant suppliers are those able to provide Cisco software licences, manage enterprise licensing arrangements and support deployment across a healthcare organisation’s existing infrastructure.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. The stated basis was that technical reasons meant the requirement could be provided only by a particular economic operator, with compatibility and continuity of service central to the decision. Price was the award criterion. The single lot is recorded as cancelled, while an active award was made to CDW Limited, with subcontracting to Cisco. The contract was signed on 1 April 2026 and is valued at £2,148,374. The release records one bid. The arrangement is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. No contract end date is stated in the process outcome.

This award demonstrates demand from a Welsh NHS organisation for consolidated Cisco licensing and associated software support, rather than separate agreements managed independently. A credible future competitor would need direct or established access to Cisco licensing, the ability to provide licence management software and the operational capacity to support a large, multi-site healthcare estate. Experience integrating new licensing arrangements with existing Cisco infrastructure would be important, as would evidence of service continuity, governance and compatibility. The awarded model also shows that a prime contractor may work with Cisco as a subcontractor, so suppliers could compete through a direct delivery model or a clearly defined technology-partner relationship. Businesses tracking this buyer should focus on enterprise software licensing and support at comparable organisational scale.
