Heart & Lung Machine

Notice Description

Heart and Lung machines

Procurement Information

The contract can lawfully be awarded without prior publication because trials carried out with both the existing supplier and a competitor demonstrated that only the current supplier's system meets the clinical and operational requirements. Clinicians favoured the existing system on technical and performance grounds, and its cost and pricing were more advantageous than the alternative.
