This software aims to integrate existing departmental processes using a comprehensive document management system, ensuring any issues are identified and rectified promptly. The procurement, classified under the Health industry category, is pertinent to the region UKL22 (Cardiff and Vale University Health Board region). The contract has been awarded without prior publication of a call for competition to Ideagen Gael Ltd, a large-scale supplier based in Glasgow. The contract, valued at GBP 404,623.94, was signed on 31 October 2024 for a duration of five years, following a negotiation process that extended the initially planned three-year framework contract to five years. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in health IT solutions, particularly those specialising in quality management systems. Companies capable of delivering robust and compliant cloud-based solutions would benefit greatly from this contract, which underscores the critical need for regulatory compliance in healthcare settings. By adopting such innovative technology, businesses can position themselves as key players within the healthcare sector, catering to the stringent requirements of clinical diagnostics and therapeutics. The move towards standardisation and centralised access to quality management systems across multiple clinical departments highlights the growing demand for integrated health IT solutions, paving avenues for collaborations and further contracts within the healthcare infrastructure. ## Notice The software integrates the department's existing processes by using a comprehensive document management system that allows departments to identify and rectify any issues before they arise. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Within the Cardiff and Vale Health Board sits the Clinical Diagnostics and Therapeutics Clinical Board that consists of seven directorates which provide a wide range of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures on a local, national and UK-wide basis. These core services collectively underpin and are the core components of almost every aspect of clinical activity undertaken within the Health Board. There are four directorates within CD&T that are wanting to procure a quality management software so to standardise their software across the board. This would include Laboratory Medical department, Clinical Haematology Department, Radiology and Medical Physics. By using this software across the board, it will create a standardisation allowing the CD&T board to access their quality management software on one portal. Whilst there is a route to market via a framework through a Direct Award, the Health Board would be restricted to a 3 year contract. After negotiating with the supplier during the market research, the Health Board was able to commit to a 5 year contract, allowing a further cost avoidance overall. ### Procurement Information To ensure regulatory compliance, it is required for Cardiff and Vale's data to be move to a cloud based solution. The Health Board's compliance hinges on having a robust system for capturing all information required to retain regulatory accreditation. Uploading the historic information to a new platform would not be feasible and puts the Health Board as risk. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Sell2Wales | | Latest notice | https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=145665 | | Notice type | OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Limited | | Procurement method details | Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 19 Mar 2025 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 31 Oct 2024 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £404,623 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Unsuccessful | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NHS WALES SHARED SERVICES PARTNERSHIP-PROCUREMENT SERVICES (HOSTED BY VELINDRE UNIVERSITY NHS TRUST) | | Locality | CARDIFF | | Post town | Cardiff | | Postcode | CF15 7QZ | | Country | Wales | | ITL 1 | TLL Wales | | ITL 2 | TLL4 Mid and South West Wales | | ITL 3 | TLL42 South West Wales | | Local authority | Carmarthenshire | | Electoral ward | Carmarthen Town West | | Westminster constituency | Caerfyrddin | | Delivery location | TLL22 Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | IDEAGEN GAEL | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 72200000 - Software programming and consultancy services - 72210000 - Programming services of packaged software products ## Release History - 19 Mar 2025 at 00:00 - Award - OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=145665 - 19 Mar 2025 at 00:00 - Award - OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=145665 - 1 Nov 2024 at 00:00 - Award - OJEU - F15 - Voluntary Ex Ante Transparency Notice - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=145665 ## Documents - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV494278 Quality Management Software for Clinical Diagnostics and Therapeutics - The software integrates the department's existing processes by using a comprehensive document management system that allows departments to identify and rectify any issues before they arise. - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAR503744 Quality Management Software for Clinical Diagnostics and Therapeutics - The software integrates the department's existing processes by using a comprehensive document management system that allows departments to identify and rectify any issues before they arise. - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAR503736 Quality Management Software for Clinical Diagnostics and Therapeutics - The software integrates the department's existing processes by using a comprehensive document management system that allows departments to identify and rectify any issues before they arise. ## Notice URLs - http://nwssp.nhs.wales/ourservices/procurement-services/ - https://api.sell2wales.gov.wales/v1?lang=cy/Notice?id=ocds-kuma6s-145665 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
