Digital Pathology Framework Extension

NHS GREATER GLASGOW AND CLYDE

This public procurement record has 2 releases in its history.

Summary of the contracting process

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde has successfully completed the procurement process for the "Digital Pathology Framework Extension," a project in the health industry category located in Paisley, UK. This tender was initiated through a limited procurement method, specifically an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. The contract was signed on 20th September 2017 and involves an active financial commitment of £8,700,000. Notably, this contract modification, which extends the existing framework by four months, reflects adjustments necessitated by unforeseen circumstances during the pandemic.

This procurement presents remarkable opportunities for businesses specialising in digital pathology solutions and associated technologies. Companies capable of providing advanced software and scanning hardware for digitisation and review of histopathology materials would be particularly well-suited to compete. Moreover, the pilot project aims to scale operations across multiple NHS boards, indicating a potential for future contracts on a national level, thereby enabling sustained business growth within the health technology sector.

Lot Information

Lot 1

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde (NHS GG&C) wish to extend current framework agreement with a service provider to provide a system that will enable the Digitisation and review of glass slides within Histopathology.

Throughout the pilot, the supplier will be expected to provide the software and scanning hardware and to implement and support the system throughout NHS GG&C and NHS Lothian and extend to NHs Lanarkshire and NHs Dumfries & Galloway plus provide training to users of the system with a view to a potential future roll out across the Country (see original contract notice)

Procurement Information

The need to extend this framework has arisen as a direct result of the pandemic and diversion of resources (especially in labs).

This modification does not alter the overall nature of the framework agreement.
