Summary of the contracting process

NHS Highland procured an oncology treatment planning system, specifically RayStation, for use in its health services. The requirement covers the supply of a treatment-planning system rather than clinical staffing or general IT support. It is classified as goods and falls within the wider category of medical and healthcare software and equipment. Delivery is associated with the Highlands, with NHS Highland based in Inverness. The procurement consisted of one requirement covering the oncology treatment planning system. This opportunity will be most relevant to suppliers of radiotherapy planning platforms, oncology information technology, medical imaging or treatment-planning software, and associated implementation and support services.

The procurement has been awarded and the resulting contract is active. NHS Highland used an open procedure. One bid was recorded for the requirement, and the contract was awarded to Raysearch UK Limited. The contract was signed on 28 July 2025 for £604,535. The award concerns the single oncology treatment planning system requirement. The procurement is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. The published outcome identifies Raysearch UK Limited as the selected supplier. The available award information does not state a separate award date or contract duration, so the signed-contract date and value are the key recorded commercial details.

For suppliers that did not win, this procurement demonstrates a defined requirement within NHS Highland for a specialist oncology treatment-planning platform, delivered through an open procedure and ultimately supplied by a dedicated healthcare technology company. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need a proven RayStation-equivalent or comparable system, with functionality suitable for oncology treatment planning and evidence that it can be deployed in a health-service environment. Relevant strengths would include clinical software expertise, integration with existing radiotherapy and medical systems, implementation capacity, user training, technical support and the ability to meet public-sector procurement requirements. The single recorded bid also indicates that specialist capability and a focused offer were central to this purchase.
