Medium Complexity

This is a contract for QbTest, a digital assessment tool used to diagnose and manage ADHD in NHS neurodevelopmental services. Peterborough and Fenland NHS Trust (PCFT) is directly awarding a contract to an existing provider for approximately £237,744 over two years.

Requirements

  • Must be the existing QbTest provider or authorized distributor
  • Must provide QbTest software and systems for ADHD assessment and management
  • Must support NHS neurodevelopmental services within PCFT
  • Contract period: 1 May 2026 to 30 April 2028
  • Likely requirement to maintain system uptime and provide technical support
  • Must comply with NHS data security and confidentiality standards (GDPR, NHS information governance)

Key Tasks & Deliverables

  • Provide access to QbTest digital assessment platform for ADHD diagnosis
  • Maintain and support the QbTest system throughout the contract period
  • Provide ongoing technical support to PCFT neurodevelopmental service staff
  • Ensure system availability and updates during the two-year contract term
  • Likely requirement to provide staff training on using the QbTest platform
  • Manage patient data securely within NHS systems

How to Read This Tender

  • 1This is a 'direct award' contract, meaning PCFT has decided to work with an existing provider rather than open it to competitive bidding — check if you are currently the provider or if you can take over this arrangement
  • 2The 'existing provider' language suggests the service is already running; the contract may involve continuation, renewal, or transition from a current supplier
  • 3The approximate value (£237,744 over 24 months) works out to roughly £9,906 per month — check if this covers licensing, support, maintenance, and training or if some are separate
  • 4Look carefully at the contract documents for any performance standards, service level agreements (SLAs), and system availability guarantees — healthcare services typically demand 99%+ uptime
  • 5Check what's included in the 'services' section — does PCFT expect implementation support, data migration, staff training, or just ongoing platform access?

Tips for Small Businesses

  • If you are not the current provider, this direct award may not be open to you — contact PCFT directly to understand if there is any competitive opportunity or if they are legally required to re-tender this in future
  • If you are the current provider or authorized distributor, ensure your proposal clearly covers all support, maintenance, and updates included in the £237,744 price to avoid scope creep
  • Highlight any added value beyond the basic QbTest platform — e.g. staff training, data reporting dashboards, or integration with NHS patient record systems — as these can strengthen a bid or renewal proposal
