Summary of the contracting process

The Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is planning a procurement process for a Pathology MES contract, part of the South 4 Pathology Network, in collaboration with other NHS Trusts. The procurement process, initiated through a tender, involves premarket engagement activities with interested suppliers, with a formal tender notice expected in Spring 2025. The current contract for managed laboratory services has been extended to align operations within the network. The buying organisation is actively engaging with potential suppliers, including Abbott Laboratories Limited. The contract extension aims to avoid duplication of costs during the transition to the re-procured solution.

This public procurement opportunity for a managed laboratory service contract offers business growth potential to suppliers in the healthcare industry, particularly those providing laboratory services. Small and large-scale suppliers with expertise in biochemistry, immunology, haematology, microbiology, virology, genetics, and pathology are well-suited to compete in this competitive flexible procedure procurement process under the Procurement Act 2023. Suppliers interested in engaging with the South 4 Pathology Network in a dialogue-based procurement should monitor the upcoming tender notice release in Spring 2025 for opportunities to participate in this significant healthcare procurement process.

    "description": "This contract extension relates to the provision of a Pathology MES contract to Oxford University Hospitals NHS Trust (the \"Trust\"). This was a contract awarded from a joint procurement process with Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust in 2012, detailed in FTS/OJ: 2012/S 064-104454. Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is part of the South 4 Pathology Network which includes Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust, Milton Keynes University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. As set out above, the South 4 Pathology Network is planning for a procurement process for a Pathology MES Contract across the network. Oxford University Hospitals NHS Trust has been leading premarket engagement with interested suppliers and the planned network procurement was first detailed in the PIN notice reference: 2022/S 000-012490 of the 13th May 2022. An update to the PIN will be released in September 2024 to provide additional details and trigger further pre market engagement. It is anticipated that the formal procurement process will involve dialogue and will be conducted as a competitive flexible procedure under the Procurement Act 2023. It is anticipated that this procurement process will formally commence with a tender notice in Spring 2025. The extension period for the Trusts' current Pathology MES contract will avoid duplication of costs of redesign required when the South 4 Pathology Network implements the re-procured solution.<br/>(Please note that due to timescales since original notice was published a new procurement system is being used the directive has had to be updated from 2004/18/EC to 2014/23/EU to allow this notice to be published as the new system does not recognise directive 2004/18/EC)",
