NHS Highland has awarded a 3-year fully comprehensive service contract to Leica Microsystems (UK) Ltd for the servicing of 3 Proveo 8 microscopes and 1 Envisu optical coherence tomography, all based at the National Treatment Centre in Inverness, UKM6. This procurement process falls under the health industry category and was conducted using a limited procurement method due to technical reasons that specified the equipment could only be serviced by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM). The contract, identified as HH208-24-TW13, was signed on 1st April 2024, with a total value of £100,971 GBP and is currently active.

This tender presents notable opportunities for businesses involved in the servicing and maintenance of specialised medical equipment.
