## Summary

Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured a subscription service for the Quality Standard for Imaging (QSI). The requirement is for yearly membership of the imaging quality standard identified by NHS England as a requirement for all hospitals. This is a specialist healthcare quality and standards service rather than clinical equipment, construction or general consultancy. The buying organisation is Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, with the requirement serving its hospital operations in Bradford. The selected provider, Imaging Quality Improvement Limited, is based in Holborn. The procurement covers one requirement: a three-year QSI subscription delivered as a recurring membership service.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Imaging Quality Improvement Limited. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, under a waiver route. The contract was signed on 14 July 2026. The awarded contract value is £44,417.54 excluding VAT, or £53,301.04 including VAT. The contract period runs from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2030. The procurement was evaluated as a subscription service requirement and has one completed lot. The award is active and the contract is active. The arrangement is therefore a concluded purchase rather than an opportunity for suppliers to submit competing bids.

This award demonstrates a defined, recurring demand from an NHS hospital trust for formal imaging quality-standard membership over a multi-year period. It is most relevant to providers able to supply QSI subscriptions or an equivalent recognised imaging quality framework, with the expertise and organisational capacity to support hospital compliance with NHS England requirements. Credible competitors would need a direct relationship with the relevant quality-standard service, dependable membership administration and the ability to serve a hospital trust throughout a sustained subscription term. Suppliers should also understand imaging governance and quality-improvement requirements well enough to make the membership practically useful, rather than simply providing generic professional subscriptions.
