## Summary

The Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is currently in the planning stage for a procurement process titled "Transperineal prostate biopsies - request for Expression of Interest". This opportunity falls under the health services category and is focused on providing a solution for undertaking increased numbers of transperineal prostate biopsies located in the East of England, United Kingdom. Interested suppliers must submit their Expressions of Interest by the engagement end date of 3rd May 2021. This tender reflects the Trust's requirement for procedures that can be carried out under local anaesthetic, thus enhancing patient care.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities for suppliers specialising in healthcare products and services, specifically those capable of handling procedures related to transperineal prostate biopsies. Companies that are well-suited to compete in this tender should have expertise in providing medical devices or solutions that align with the requirements set out by the Trust. This presents a unique chance for businesses to engage with a major NHS trust and potentially secure contracts for an estimated volume of over 250 procedures per year.

## Notice

NNUH are seeking Expressions of Interest from suppliers who are able to assist in the undertaking of transperineal prostate biopsies. Due to current circumstances, there is a need to undertake an increased number of these biopsies, and hence a system which allows this to be done under local anaesthetic rather than general anaesthetic has several advantages to NNUH. NNUH are interested to hear from suppliers who are able to offer a solution for this, and rough estimates of the costs of the products based on carrying out in excess of 250 procedures per year.
