## Summary

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, has completed the procurement process titled "PROVISION OF LAPTOPS AND DESKTOP DEVICES FOR EPMA PROJECT". This project, focused on the health industry category, took place in Cardiff, UK, with the award stage finalised on 27th March 2026. The procurement was part of enhancing the Electronic Pharmacy Medicines Administration system to digitise paper-based drug charts. The procurement method used was a limited procedure under the NHS SBS Digital Workplace Solutions framework, without prior publication of a call for competition, intended to align with capital funding secured from the Welsh Government in February 2025.

This tender presents business growth opportunities particularly for suppliers of IT hardware, with Dell Technologies already awarded the contract for laptops and desktop devices valued at £49,060. Companies specialising in providing innovative IT solutions to the healthcare sector would be well-suited to compete in similar future tenders. The focus on improving healthcare efficiencies via advanced technology indicates a demand for robust IT infrastructure, presenting ongoing business opportunities for providers capable of delivering such solutions.

## Notice

In 2023 Cardiff & Vale University Health Board undertook a revolutionary procurement of the Electronic Pharmacy Medicines Administration (ePMA) system, enabling the digitalisation of paper-based drug charts across the Health Board to improve the safe administration of medicines with fully auditable trails from Pharmacist to Nurse. In February 2025, through capital funding received from Welsh Government, the Health Board has been able to invest in the outright purchase of hardware to meet current and future demands of the ePMA programme. To support ease of use, laptop carts have been introduced within wards to hold computer hardware and securely transport medicines, thereby increasing the efficiency of drug administration. Additionally, the need for further digital devices for the project to run smoothly will need to be purchased by capital funding. The purchase of the additional computer equipment will tie in with the already purchased laptop chargers to optimise the transfer from paper to electronic services.
