- Why no open competition
- Switching Direct Award
- Published justification
Competitive procedure abandoned and Direct Award to incumbent provider approved as this approach will provide NHS Dorset with the flexibility to align its future digital solution with wider Cluster arrangements, supporting long-term strategic objectives, productivity, and efficiency gains in line with the NHS 10 Year Plan and ICB cluster blueprint. Awarding a contract as a result of the current procurement would not now be feasible. Delays in the process and decision-making mean it is no longer possible to mobilise and implement a new system by 31 March 2026, when the current contract expires.
