A new framework agreement covering the full suite of clinical digital professional services, including services pertaining to both proprietary solutions and opensource solutions. All standalone, clinical system focused professional services, will be covered.

The authority intends to award this framework via four lots as follows:

Lot 1: General clinical digital professional services;

Lot 2: Cloud hosting, environment build, operation and maintenance professional services;

Lot 3: Design, development, and deployment professional services;

Lot 4: Support professional services.

The framework agreement will allow for further competition and direct award to all awarded suppliers. In order to facilitate direct award, this framework will require the submission of national list pricing that will be published in a catalogue to all potential drawdown authorities in full and unrestricted.

Lot 1: General clinical digital professional services.

Lot 2: Cloud hosting, environment build, operation and maintenance professional services.

Lot 3: Design, development, and deployment professional services.
