Buyer	NHS Blood and Transplant — not a council we hold
Supplier	SPECIALIST COMPUTER CENTRES PLC

NHSBT has been using Citrix since 1999 and two of its major CNI's, Pulse & Hematos are presented to the end user using this technology. In 2022, NHSBT purchased a three-year subscription with Citrix, including two years Hybrid Rights. During the first two years, this allowed NHSBT to utilise both on-premise and Citrix Cloud (DaaS) implementations. In February 2024 NHSBT migrated the on-premise management infrastructure into Citrix Cloud (DaaS) resulting in a cost avoidance of circa £100k. This procurement aims to continue to utilise Citrix Cloud (DaaS) to manage the NHSBT Citrix estate by renewing the licences that underpin this technology.

Figures are as published An award value in OCDS may be a framework ceiling rather than a sum anyone expects to spend, so a large figure here is not evidence of a large purchase.
