Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is currently engaged in the procurement process for a 12-month extension of the "Laboratory Managed Service". This contract falls under the services category, specifically within laboratory services, and has an estimated value of £28,300,000. The delivery is intended to take place at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital, located in Glasgow (UKM82). The procurement method is classified as limited, and there was no prior publication for a call for competition due to the complexity of the contract, which required a lengthy preparation period exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic. The awarding of the contract occurred on 31st August 2021, and the contract is currently active.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the laboratory services sector, particularly those capable of providing managed service agreements across a wide range of laboratory specialties. Companies with experience in healthcare services and a strong technological foundation would be well-suited to compete in future tenders, especially given the planned re-tendering after the 12-month extension. Businesses should position themselves to capitalise on this vital service, ensuring they can meet quality and technical criteria to align with the NHS's objectives.

Notice Title

Laboratory Managed Service - Extension

Notice Description

12 month extension to current Labs Managed Service

Lot Information

Lot 1

Provision of a managed service agreement for the large majority of analyses performed within the NHS GG&C Laboratory Medicine Department across the full range of laboratory specialties

Procurement Information

Preparation for a contract of this size and complexity has a long lead time of around 3 years, therefore the Covid-19 pandemic has caused an unavoidable diversion of Health Board resources across Labs disciplines, Finance and Procurement. A 12 month extension will therefore allow time to prepare for the longer term re-tender. This is a reasonable and proportionate step in order to maintain a critical clinical service whilst balancing this against our legal duty to expose the requirement to full, open competition in due course.
