Summary of the contracting process

North of England NHS Commercial Procurement Collaborative, acting for NHS Procurement in Partnership, plans to procure radiopharmaceuticals and associated consumables through a single framework solution. The participating procurement partnership comprises the East of England NHS Collaborative Procurement Hub, NHS Commercial Solutions, NHS London Procurement Partnership and the North of England NHS Commercial Procurement Collaborative. Supplies will support NHS trusts undertaking nuclear medicine therapy, diagnostic nuclear medicine without imaging and diagnostic nuclear medicine imaging. The scope includes radio-isotopes, technetium, gallium and radiotherapy-related devices and supplies. This is a goods procurement intended to provide a coordinated supply and service arrangement for participating NHS organisations rather than a construction or general clinical services contract.

The process is at the planning stage: the buyer has announced an intention to procure, but has not invited tenders. It is expected to use an open procedure to establish a framework agreement, with one planned lot. The anticipated framework term is from 1 October 2027 to 30 September 2031. The buyer expects the next notice to be published around 1 June 2027; this is an indicative publication date, not a response deadline. The anticipated value is £70,000,000 excluding VAT and £84,000,000 including VAT. The procurement is above the relevant threshold. The buyer has revised the anticipated spend upwards following further analysis of expected expenditure through the framework.

This will suit manufacturers, specialist distributors and established healthcare supply businesses able to provide radiopharmaceuticals and related consumables for NHS nuclear medicine services. Relevant capability includes supplying radio-isotopes, technetium, gallium and radiotherapy devices or supplies, with products suitable for therapy, diagnostic non-imaging and diagnostic imaging applications. Suppliers should be prepared to support an NHS framework serving multiple procurement collaboratives and trusts, so dependable distribution, product availability, regulatory compliance and continuity of supply are likely to be important when the tender reaches the market. Businesses with a broad portfolio may be well placed for the intended one-stop solution, while focused specialists may be relevant where their products match particular nuclear medicine requirements. This is a preparation opportunity, not a competition currently open for bids.
