Summary of the contracting process

NHS Shetland is overseeing the procurement process for a "Laboratory Managed Service" within the Laboratory services industry category. This service covers delivery locations in Lerwick, region UKM66, with a primary focus on the Gilbert Bain Hospital. The procurement stage is currently in the Contract Award Update, having initially signed a contract worth £3,394,000 with Abbott Laboratories Ltd on 20th March 2020. The contracting authority plans to extend the current contract until December 2024 to facilitate a direct award from an existing framework agreement. Key dates include the modification on the contract term for five months to maintain service requirements and prevent disruption.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in laboratory services. Companies capable of providing managed laboratory services, particularly those familiar with the operational needs of NHS facilities, would be well-suited to compete. The extension and modification of the contract suggest that reliable and consistent service providers are highly valued, offering a stable avenue for business growth in long-term public sector engagements. This opportunity is ideal for businesses that can demonstrate compliance with regulatory standards while ensuring minimal disruption to ongoing healthcare services.
