Summary of the contracting process

Public Services Delivery Scotland, the Common Services Agency, bought three digital mammography systems for the Scottish Breast Screening programme. The requirement includes supplying the equipment and associated installation, user training and maintenance. The systems are for NHS Scotland delivery and use. This is a healthcare equipment opportunity centred on mammography imaging, rather than a general medical equipment supply. The procurement was a call-off from the National Procurement Multi Modality Imaging Framework NP167/22. The relevant product classification is CPV 33111650, covering mammography equipment. Businesses suited to this requirement would typically supply digital mammography systems and provide the technical support needed to install, train users on and maintain them within NHS Scotland services.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Hologic Ltd; the contract is active and was signed on 18 July 2026. The contract value is £743,550. It covers one lot for three digital mammography systems and associated installation, training and maintenance. The buyer used a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, as a call-off from the existing framework. The stated award rationale records no tenders or suitable tenders or requests to participate in response to an open procedure. One bid was recorded, including one bid from an SME and one foreign EU bid. The contract has no additional purchase options.

This award demonstrates demand from NHS Scotland for a small fleet of digital mammography systems supported through their full operational life. A credible future competitor would need a proven mammography equipment portfolio, the technical capacity to install multiple systems, and the ability to train clinical users and provide responsive maintenance. Experience supporting breast screening or comparable NHS diagnostic imaging services would help demonstrate understanding of clinical environments, service continuity and equipment reliability. Suppliers would also need to work through the relevant national purchasing framework route, understand public-sector healthcare requirements and evidence that they can deliver equipment and support as one integrated service. The single-bid outcome indicates a focused market in which specialist imaging suppliers may be well placed.
