Summary of the contracting process

Birmingham Women’s and Children’s NHS Foundation Trust procured a cancer panel service provided by Roche Diagnostics Ltd. The requirement is classified as goods and includes instrument panels (CPV 31682200), supporting the Trust’s cancer-related diagnostic activity. The University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust managed the procurement through the Birmingham and Solihull Procurement Collaborative, a shared procurement service for multiple NHS trusts in the Birmingham and Solihull Integrated Care System. The work is associated with NHS healthcare delivery in Birmingham. Roche Diagnostics Ltd, based in Burgess Hill, West Sussex, is the selected supplier. This opportunity is relevant to diagnostic manufacturers, laboratory technology companies and suppliers of cancer testing panels or associated instrument systems serving NHS organisations.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. A single lot was awarded to Roche Diagnostics Ltd. The award is active and the contract was signed on 23 June 2026. The contract runs from 24 June 2026 to 24 June 2027. Its value is £20,530.25 excluding VAT, or £24,636.30 including VAT. The award covers the cancer panel requirement and related instrument panels. The evaluation basis was the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender. This is a concluded procurement, so the published outcome identifies the supplier, commercial scale and route used to satisfy the Trust’s requirement.

This award demonstrates demand from Birmingham Women’s and Children’s NHS Foundation Trust for a Roche cancer panel service and associated instrument panels. Suppliers competing for similar NHS diagnostic requirements would need a credible cancer diagnostics offering that integrates with the relevant laboratory instruments and supports routine clinical use. Experience supplying healthcare organisations, dependable product availability and the ability to provide an established diagnostic panel service would strengthen a future proposition. The buyer’s use of a direct, below-threshold route also shows that a supplier’s existing product fit and relationship with the Trust can be commercially important. Companies monitoring this buyer should therefore track cancer diagnostics, instrument-panel and laboratory testing requirements, and be prepared to evidence technical suitability and NHS delivery experience.
