Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University of Edinburgh procured specialist servicing and maintenance for its nanoscan PET/CT system, identified in the procurement as a laboratory service. The requirement covers the system located at the University of Edinburgh in Edinburgh. The equipment is a nanoscan PET/CT 122S (2PM-s) system, and the service is intended to keep it maintained and operational. This is a single-service requirement focused on the buyer’s own imaging equipment rather than a wider laboratory support programme. Businesses relevant to this opportunity are therefore medical imaging equipment manufacturers, authorised service providers and specialist engineering firms with the technical ability to maintain and repair nanoscan PET/CT systems. The University of Edinburgh is the contracting buyer.

This procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Mediso Medical Imaging Systems UK Limited was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 19 August 2026 and has a value of £351,500. It runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027, covering a one-year extension to the existing multi-year service contract. The buyer used a contract modification under Regulation 72(1)(c) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, rather than a new competition. The stated rationale was the need for additional services from the original contractor, with the increase remaining below 50% of the contract value. The procurement is a single lot and was evaluated through this modification route.

This award demonstrates continuing demand from the University of Edinburgh for specialist maintenance of nanoscan PET/CT equipment. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable technical expertise in the relevant Mediso system, including the 122S (2PM-s) configuration, and the ability to provide planned servicing, preventative maintenance, fault diagnosis and repairs. Experience supporting specialist medical or research imaging equipment would help establish operational credibility, particularly where system availability and safe performance are important. Suppliers would also need the engineering capacity to provide responsive support in Edinburgh and to work effectively within a university environment. The incumbent’s position as the original contractor shows that equipment-specific knowledge and continuity of service are important factors for this buyer.
