Summary of the contracting process

NHS Shetland has initiated a public procurement process for a "Laboratory Managed Service" targeting the services industry category. The procurement location is primarily the Gilbert Bain Hospital in Lerwick, under the region code UKM66. The procurement is currently at the contract update stage, with key dates including the initial contract signing date of 20th March 2020 and an extension noted to December 2024. The procurement method involves a direct award from an existing framework agreement, aligned with Regulation 72(1)(c) of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in laboratory services. The extended contract seeks to maintain uninterrupted service levels, making it suitable for established suppliers with the capability to deliver consistent, high-quality service on an ongoing basis. Large-scale businesses, particularly those with experience in laboratory management and healthcare services, such as Abbott Laboratories Ltd, are well-positioned to compete and contribute to the seamless operation of NHS Shetland's medical facilities.
