Tender description

NHS Supply Chain wishes to engage with suppliers that can provide a software platform that enables the creation of a single view of a patient's clinical data, sourced from across multiple provider sites, around which clinicians can collaborate within a secure, patient-centric, asynchronous communication environment which integrates with, and writes back to the patient's medical record in both primary and secondary care settings. This PIN intends to identify such providers with a view to ultimately include this solution within the scope of the Medical IT Departmental Software and Hardware Solutions framework which is due to renew 1st February 2025. Suppliers capable of delivering such a solution will be invited to tender to provide a route to market that enables access for the NHS during the interim period until the award of the new framework on 1st February 2025. Precise quantities are unknown. It is anticipated that initial expenditure will be in the region of £4,000,000 based on supporting a small number of NHS Trusts and could grow to £60,000,000 if more Trusts require the software platform. However this is an approximate only and the values may vary depending on the requirements of those bodies purchasing under the Framework Agreement
