## Summary

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured a web-based regional referral management system for complex acute trauma and orthopaedic patient referrals. The Referapatient platform supports hospitals across the East of England to access clinical advice and transfer patients to Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust’s regional Major Trauma Centre. It is intended to support the delivery of care for major trauma patients by coordinating referrals between hospitals and the trauma centre. The requirement is for IT services covering software, internet access, support and related consultancy, classified under CPV 72000000. Delivery is regional across the East of England, with the buying organisation based in Cambridge. The procurement comprised one lot.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a below-threshold procedure. Bloomsbury Health Limited was selected for the single lot, with the award made on 4 September 2026. The contract was signed on 3 September 2026 and runs from 4 September 2026 to 3 September 2027. Its value is £12,816 excluding VAT, or £15,379.20 including VAT. The contract is active. The tender was evaluated as a service requirement for a regional referral management platform, and the procurement was below the applicable threshold. The selected supplier is a London-based small and medium-sized enterprise. The award covers the Referapatient platform and its associated IT support, internet and software services for the regional trauma referral system.

This procurement shows demand from Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for a specialist regional healthcare referral platform rather than a general-purpose IT system. Suppliers competing for a future requirement of this kind would need to provide a secure, reliable web-based service that allows multiple hospitals to access clinical advice, manage complex acute trauma and orthopaedic referrals, and coordinate patient transfers to a major trauma centre. Credibility would depend on experience delivering software platforms used across healthcare organisations, dependable hosting and user access, responsive technical support, and an understanding of clinical referral workflows. Suppliers should also be able to operate at regional scale, integrate stakeholders across hospitals, and demonstrate that their service can support continuity of care for major trauma patients.
