MedicinrÄdet Secures DKK 8 Million Framework for Real-World Data Consultancy Services
28 Jul 2026
A framework agreement for consultancy services for data and data analysis to support follow-up on MedicinrĂ„det's recommendations worth up to DKK 8 million has been awarded by MedicinrĂ„det. The contract, won by the consortium "Danish Alliance for Real-World Evidence" comprising Region Hovedstaden, Region Midtjylland, and Syddansk Universitet, demonstrates how Denmark is strengthening the use of health data to evaluate the real-world effectiveness of cancer treatments following recommendations. Introduction Every cancer patient in Denmark deserves access to effective treatments, and every new medicine should be evaluated based on its real-world performance. The Danish Medicine Council (MedicinrĂ„det) has taken a significant step to strengthen the use of health data in evaluating cancer treatments by awarding a new framework agreement for consultancy services for data and data analysis. While not a headline-grabbing consumer deal, this contract is fundamental to ensuring that cancer treatments are evaluated based on their effectiveness in Danish clinical practice. It reveals a great deal about how Denmark is leveraging real-world data (RWD) to improve health outcomes and support evidence-based decision-making in healthcare. Why This Contract Matters The Danish Medicine Council (MedicinrĂ„det) is responsible for recommending which new medicines should be used as standard treatment in Denmark. The Council's recommendations are based on clinical trials, but real-world data (RWD) â data from actual clinical practice â provides valuable insights into how treatments perform in real-life settings. A partnership established under the Cancer Plan V and the 2026 Finance Agreement aims to strengthen the use of health data in the uptake of new cancer medicines and to create knowledge about the effectiveness of new medicines after recommendation. This framework agreement supports this partnership by providing consultancy services for pilot projects and the development of a model for follow-up on MedicinrĂ„det's recommendations using RWD.

DenmarkTender Procurement Intelligence This contract is a useful case study in how Danish public bodies procure complex IT services. Landsbyggefonden has secured a DKK 20 million contract for data warehouse maintenance and development, with KMD A/S selected through a negotiated procedure with pre-qualification. The most notable feature of this tender is the 70% weighting for quality criteria (55% for the supplier's team and 15% for the system management plan). This reflects the complexity of the data warehouse system, which must collect and analyse data from multiple sources (Landsbyggefonden, housing associations, BBR, and the Danish Energy Agency's EMO database) and make it available to various users. For such a complex system, the quality of the team and the management approach are critical to successful delivery. The pre-qualification stage focused on references, giving positive weight to experience with data warehouse systems, on-premise operation, API development, and customer-specific data warehouse delivery. This ensured that only suppliers with relevant experience progressed to the tender stage. The inclusion of sanctions compliance provisions (EU Regulation 2025/395) reflects the ongoing impact of international sanctions on public procurement, requiring suppliers to demonstrate compliance with restrictions related to Russian involvement. For suppliers, the lesson is that team quality, technical expertise, and robust management planning are more important than price alone in complex IT service procurement. Companies that can demonstrate strong technical credentials and proven experience are best positioned for these contracts. Supplier Takeaways Team quality is the most important criterion (55%). System management plan (15%) reflects the importance of operational planning. Price (30%) is important but secondary to quality. Pre-qualification ensures only qualified suppliers progress. Relevant experience in data warehousing, on-premise operation, and APIs is essential. Sanctions compliance (EU Regulation 2025/395) is mandatory.
