UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is buying a rubidium generator and delivery system for use in healthcare. The requirement covers the supply of the generator and the associated delivery system. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. This is a goods procurement, with rubidium identified as the product classification. The buying organisation is based in London. Suppliers should assess whether they can provide the specified generator and delivery arrangements for a hospital buyer; the detailed technical requirements and delivery arrangements are set out in the procurement documents.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure. The submission deadline was 6 November 2026 at 12:00 noon, and the stated end of the award period is 2 December 2026. The estimated value is £1.2 million excluding VAT, or £1.44 million including VAT. There is one lot. The contract period is 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2029, with two possible 12-month extensions, allowing a maximum end date of 31 December 2031. Evaluation weights are 60% quality, 30% financial and 10% social value. Electronic submission is permitted, in English, through the Atamis system.

The opportunity suits suppliers able to provide a rubidium generator together with a reliable delivery system for a hospital setting. The single lot is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community or social enterprises, so suppliers of those types may compete for the full requirement. Quality carries the largest evaluation weighting, with financial value and social value also assessed; bidders should therefore be prepared to demonstrate the quality of their offer as well as its cost and social contribution. The contract’s multi-year term and possible extensions may suit suppliers with the capacity to support continued supply and delivery over an extended period. The published requirement does not describe particular accreditations, minimum capacity levels or prior experience conditions.
