## Summary

Digital Health and Care Wales (DHCW) has modified the contract for the All Wales NHS GP Links Messaging Solution. This procurement falls under the industry category of goods and involves a central messaging hub with distribution to approximately 450-500 GP Practices across NHS Wales. The modification primarily addresses an urgent need that arose in April 2021 to enable the transmission of vaccination messages due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The contract, awarded to Iuvo Limited, is active and spans a period of 120 months from 1st October 2019 to 30th September 2029, with an initial seven-year term and an optional three-year extension. The procurement stage is currently at contract update, reflecting ongoing adjustments to meet public health requirements.

This procurement provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in healthcare IT solutions, particularly those with capabilities in message-based integration systems. Companies that can offer expertise in managing and adapting to urgent public health needs, such as vaccination dataflows, will find this tender particularly appealing. Large-scale IT service providers, especially those familiar with NHS operations and existing systems, would be well-suited to compete in this space, potentially resulting in significant business growth and a strengthened presence in the healthcare technology sector.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

The GP Links contract provides message-based integration between secondary care applications and GP Practices in Wales. The solution procured replaced all previous secondary care to primary care GP Links solutions in Wales and it takes results from Welsh Laboratory Information Management System ("WLIMS"), Radiology Systems ("WRIS") as well as Screening messages and Accident & Emergency letters from Cwm Taf and sends them to GP Practices across NHS Wales. In April 2021, DHCW received an urgent request for a new Vaccination Message dataflow to enable the transmission of Vaccine Messages from the BSO Vaccine Management System ("VMS") and the DHCW Welsh Immunisation System ("WIS") onto GP Practices. The Change Control Notice ("CCN") was issued on an urgent basis as it was required to enable NHS Wales to meet the needs of the national COVID immunisation programme. This was an urgent unforeseen change as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and it was unclear at the time whether the new dataflow would be required for the remaining duration of the contract.
