What is being bought

The North West London Integrated Care Board (NWL ICB) and North Central London Integrated Care Board (NCL ICB) are looking to procure a single Complex Care Clinical Commissioning Digital end-to-end solution for the newly merged West and North London Integrated Care Board (WNL ICB), which will support the management of approximately 13,000 clients across 13 boroughs. As both organisations merge and undertake significant change in role, structure and culture, the digital system aims to ensure there is resilience within the Complex Care service through improved efficiency, integration, and patient outcomes by replacing outdated systems. The new digital end-to-end solution will reduce unwarranted variation, introduce workflows and automation, improve data accuracy and visibility, reduce overall IT spend, lower operational cost; increase productivity through efficient use of resources, improve quality and performance, stronger security, support the development of roles, which add value both for the individual member of staff as well as the organisation, support transitioning to a new operating model and transformational ways of working and empower client and stakeholder via dedicated portals improving user experience. This initiative supports the Government’s 10 Year Health Plan for England launched in July 2025 and the Model ICB AACC Good Practice Recommendations published in September 2025 highlighting the ambition of moving the NHS from Analogue to Digital. Furthermore, it is supported by the Darzi Report (2024) which identified that the NHS has not invested in platform technologies which can radically reshape how we work and live our lives. The ICBs intend to enter into a contract for five (5) years, with the option to extend for a further three (3) 12 month periods (+1+1+1). The contractual start date of the new Digital system is to commence on 1 Aug 2027, it is anticipated that mobilisation of the system will be between 1 Apr 2027 to 31 Jul 2027 (9-months) – and will also include a dual running period at the latter stage.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 48. The category anchor is Software package and information systems (48000000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.

The Authorities welcome feedback on the specification which you can do so by submitting an attachment within the response area before the deadline of 08 April 2026. \nAll presentation documentation, questions and answers will be published against the opportunity on the Portal following the event.\nThe purpose of this market engagement notice is to maximise transparency and competition for the upcoming tender and to ensure as wide an audience as possible are aware and informed of the Authorities’ intentions.
