Lot Information
Lot 1
Before we go out to tender, we wish to engage with the market and invite interested bidders to attend a Teams meeting to hear more about this project. If you wish to engage with us, please express an interest in this project (after registering on intend.

We expect the 1 to 1 meetings to take place during the fortnight beginning 5th February 2024 over Teams. If you are interested, please send the names and email addresses of all who wish to attend to Theresa.king@norfolk.gov.uk and an invitation will be issued. Norfolk County Council are the relevant authority for the Norfolk Coroners Service. We wish to enter into a contract to provide digital autopsy (CT scanning) services for the Coroner for the county of Norfolk. Digital Autopsy/CT Scanning is used as first line intervention as an alternative to traditional post-mortem examinations within Norfolk. Patients are scanned via a CT Scanner and images from the scan are then used by specially trained radiologists and coroners' pathologists to assist in ascertaining a cause of death. It is anticipated that a cause of death can be ascertained in approximately 75% of cases where patients have been scanned. This avoids the need to use the more traditional invasive approach to post mortem in these cases.
