Lot Information
Lot 1
Aim of this PIN is to notify the Radio Pharmacy manufacturing market of our intention to commission a Managed Service Agreement for a new aseptic manufacturing unit. Guys and St Thomas NHS Foundation trust's generic principals for MSAs
1. The Trust gives no guarantee around patient activity / volumes.
2.The providers realise returns on any capital investment through service revenues
3. The Provider takes the risk of under payment
4. The Trust takes risk of over payment
5. The trust is to maintain clinician choice where possible i.e. For consumables, equipment, etc that is supplied by the Managed Service Provider.
This is a vital stage of our scoping as industry have the opportunity to influence shape the business model of a new Radio Pharmacy manufacturing unit. Significant capital investment will need to be provided by industry to build a new, future proof unit, equipment and consumables. Full or part service management will also include logistics and distribution and the authority will favour those industry partners that recognise the value of Research, clinical studies, education and training. At time of writing there are no available locations at either Guys or St Thomas for a new manufacturing unit and so a location will need to be identified. There is no capital available from GSTT.

1. Contact Patric Lemagnen (contact details in this notice), and state you are a supplier who is wanting to get involved in this pre-market engagement exercise.

Additional information: Once PIN responses have been received, consolidated and diffused across the senior stakeholders at Guys and St Thomas, an outline business case and the frame work for a specification will commence that will be take into account industry-responses. A formal competitive procurement process will commence later this year and into 2024.
