## Summary

The tender process is managed by Digital Health and Care Wales, which is seeking to modify the All Wales NHS GP Links Messaging Solution contract. This falls under the goods industry category with a CPV code of 48510000. The delivery is focused on a central messaging hub servicing approximately 450-500 GP practices across NHS Wales, with distribution from various secondary care applications. The procurement is in the contract update stage as of 20th January 2025, under a legal basis defined by CELEX:32014L0024. The contract period spans from 1st October 2019 to 30th September 2026, with a potential extension up to 30th September 2029.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in healthcare IT solutions and data integration. Companies that can provide robust, scalable messaging systems suited to healthcare data flows, including complex vaccination data, will find this contract particularly rewarding. Large-scale IT firms with existing experience in bespoke solutions similar to the GP Links Messaging Solution will be well-positioned to compete effectively. The procurement method involves modifications to existing contracts, highlighting a preference for suppliers who can seamlessly integrate new functionalities with the current system without incurring disproportionate costs or technical difficulties.

### 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. Vaccination is now part of our business-as-usual service offering, and therefore the Changes made in 2021 will need to remain active to ensure the flow of data from the WIS into the GP record is maintained for COVID, other vaccination programmes and ad-hoc requirements related to the flow of data into and from the GP systems suppliers. A further dataflow is also required to allow Flu, RSV, Pertussis, MMR and Shingles vaccinations recorded within WIS to flow into the EMIS GP System.
