NHS England has awarded a contract worth £33.6 million to TPXimpact to deliver digital and data services relating to vaccinations, as part of the Digital Prevention Services Portfolio.

Moving from treatment to prevention is one of the three key shifts in the NHS 10 year health plan, with the ambition to halve the gap in healthy life expectancy between the richest and poorest regions, while increasing it for everyone.

NHS England’s Digital Prevention Services Portfolio is a national programme to design, build and operate digital and data services that support the prevention of ill health and early intervention.

Under the contract, technology-enabled services company TPXimpact will deliver services across maternity, neonatal and school-age vaccinations, supporting three end-to-end vaccination pathways across multiple care settings, including GP practices, schools and community environments.

Bjørn Conway, chief executive at TPXimpact, said: “This new award with NHS England is strategically important for TPXimpact and places us at the heart of delivering nationally critical public services.

“It reflects the trust placed in us to operate at scale on complex government programmes and demonstrates the progress we have made following the successful execution of our turnaround plan.

“As we now focus on growth and acceleration, this win is a clear endorsement of our capability, our people and our role in delivering digital services that have a lasting, positive impact on society.”

TPXimpact will primarily support healthcare professionals responsible for administering, recording and managing vaccinations through digital systems, including GPs, nurses, midwives, pharmacists, school-aged immunisation service teams and other clinical and operational staff.

The contract was awarded on 10 February 2026 and begins on 2 March 2026, running for three years before ending on 28 February 2029.

The maternity and child vaccinations digital deal is the third such agreement awarded by NHSE in the last six months.

In August last year, NHSE signed a £78.4m two-year contract with Aire Logic to cover the operation of digital tools supporting “adult and seasonal” variations.

Aire Logic will deliver services to “enable the national invite service for seasonal vaccinations and relevant catch-up campaigns, to ensure eligible individuals are invited, and development of the Book an Appointment, Find a Vaccination Service, Manage my Vaccination Appointment and National Invitation capabilities”.

Meanwhile, in January 2026, digital technology firm Kainos, alongside a consortium of smaller companies, announced they had secured a £45m contract to improve access to vaccinations and screenings through the NHS App and accelerate the delivery of personalised healthcare.

The three contracts take NHS England’s spending on digital prevention services to more than £157m over the past six months.

Speaking at Digital Health webinar in January, Rachel Hope, director of digital prevention services at NHSE, said that the scale and engagement of the NHS App makes it ideal for reaching citizens directly with preventative interventions such as vaccinations, screening and digital health checks.

She added that national platforms such as the NHS App should support prevention services end-to-end, including helping users to complete referrals and ensuring that information flows back into local systems.
