This is the latest instalment of an exclusive series analysing the UK’s biggest public sector tech deals. In partnership with data analysis firm Tussell, we drill down into the top five most valuable tenders and awards from the previous week, and take stock of which tech firms have won the biggest share of the public sector pie.
It’s a huge week for govtech tenders, with the top two alone amounting to £750m. The first, valued at £500m, is a framework for procuring the technology required for hospitals to access patient records through the Health and Social Care Network. The second is a £250m framework for a single supplier to provide IT services across two NHS trusts in Cambridgeshire. Suppliers have until 25 October to apply.
