Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust involves the supply of Pre-Prepared Radiopharmaceuticals used in Nuclear Medicine Diagnostics. This was a direct procurement method, completed below the competition threshold. The contract is geographically specific due to the rapid decay of the radioactive isotopes, necessitating daily deliveries to Swindon by 7:00 am. The procurement stage is now at the award phase, with the award being made to the University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust on 1 June 2026, valued at £99,407. The contract period is set from 30 June 2026 to 31 May 2027. The project mainly falls under the pharmaceutical products industry category.

The tender presents substantial growth opportunities for firms specialising in the pharmaceutical and medical supply sectors, particularly those capable of meeting stringent logistics requirements for time-sensitive deliveries. Large-scale businesses with capabilities in packaging and supply of radiopharmaceutical kits—preferably those experienced in handling radioactive substances—are well-positioned to benefit. This procurement aligns with supporting the healthcare sector's critical diagnostic operations, especially in oncology, enhancing service readiness and patient care efficacy.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Supply of Pre-Prepared Radiopharmaceuticals

Notice Description

Supply and daily delivery of Pre-Prepared Radiopharmaceutical Kits used in Nuclear Medicine Diagnostics. The service is critical to the delivery of time-sensitive diagnostic procedures, particularly those related to cancer pathways. Due to the nature of the product - radioactive isotopes with rapid decay - the supply is geographically restricted and must adhere to extremely tight production and delivery timelines. Kits must be delivered to the Trust by 7:00 am each day, with no shelf life available, requiring a fresh supply every 24 hours to maintain operational continuity.
