Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Golden Jubilee is engaged in a procurement process for the purchase of Intravascular Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) devices, specifically one OPTIS Integrated Next Imaging System and one Mobile Next Imaging System. This procurement falls under the goods category and is classified as related to tomography devices (CPV code 33115000). The procurement method is limited, conducted without prior publication of a call for competition, as the only compliant supplier is Abbott Medical UK Limited.
