## Summary

Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust procured ICT and telecommunications services for 1,000 data SIMs used in Total Mobile iPads. The requirement covers mobile connectivity supporting the Trust’s iPad estate rather than physical devices or general IT consultancy. The buying organisation is Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, with the procurement managed through the Birmingham and Solihull Procurement Collaborative hosted by University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust. The service is associated with postal and telecommunications services and is delivered for the Trust’s operations in Birmingham. Sygma Solutions, based in Wigan, was the selected supplier. The procurement was treated as a service requirement and divided into one completed lot.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It was a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, under the UK legal basis identified as 2023/54. Sygma Solutions received the award for the single lot. The contract was signed on 15 July 2026, runs from 16 July to 14 August 2026, and has a value of £67,333.33 excluding VAT, or £80,800 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The published award information identifies telecommunications services as the category. The procurement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender, so no scored evaluation criteria or competing tenderers are recorded.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust for managed mobile data connectivity supporting a substantial fleet of clinical or operational tablets. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement of this kind would provide business mobile data SIMs, reliable network connectivity and the operational capability to provision and support around 1,000 connected iPads. The relevant market is telecommunications and mobile connectivity rather than device manufacture, software development or general IT support. A credible competitor would also need the scale to service an NHS trust’s tablet estate and understand how to work through the Birmingham and Solihull shared procurement service. The award indicates a compact, defined connectivity requirement suitable for established telecoms or specialist mobile-data providers.
