NHS England, located in London, has completed the procurement process for a "Cyres colposcopy and cytology reporting QA license for 26/27 + 1." The procurement falls under the healthcare services category, with the contracted work relating to cervical screening programmes. This procurement was a direct purchase from Cyres Limited, the sole provider of the Cinergy system, through a single tender action due to the absence of alternative suppliers or frameworks. The tender is classified under public authority - central government and was awarded on 14 April 2026, with the contract period commencing on 1 April 2026 and extending until 31 March 2027, with the possibility of a 12-month renewal. The procurement method is specified as below threshold, without competition.

The contract presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those involved in developing or maintaining healthcare reporting systems tailored for screening processes, to explore unique collaborations or supply opportunities in NHS initiatives.

Notice Title

Cyres colposcopy and cytology reporting QA license for 26/27 + 1

Notice Description

A licence for the Cinergy QA module, which links Cyres Cytology and Cyres Colposcopy systems to provide end-to-end reporting and enable electronic submission of QA and KC dataset returns for the cervical screening programme. Who is the supplier? Cyres - the sole provider of the Cinergy system. No alternative suppliers or frameworks exist, so a Single Tender Action (STA) is the only viable route. Why is it important? Cinergy is the national system used by cervical screening laboratories and colposcopy clinics. SQAS requires access to review data, monitor performance, and quality assure the NHSCSP. Without Cinergy, SQAS cannot carry out statutory QA functions, risking inconsistent service quality and patient safety. What are the risks if we do not purchase this? SQAS unable to quality assure cervical screening services Increased risk of avoidable cervical cancer due to lack of oversight Sub-optimal patient care and variation in
