## Summary

The Guy's & St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust is currently conducting a tender for Pathology Services, with an emphasis on providing comprehensive pathology examinations, including analytics and managed laboratory services. This procurement is classified under the CPV code 85111800 and is situated in London, United Kingdom. The tender period concludes on 28th September 2018, with the contract expected to commence on 1st September 2020 and extend until 31st August 2035. The procurement method adopted is selective, using a competitive dialogue process, which allows for engaging discussions with potential suppliers.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the healthcare and laboratory services industry, particularly those capable of providing a broad range of pathology services. Companies specializing in diagnostic testing, bioscience research, and laboratory management are well-suited to participate. The evolving scope of pathology disciplines may also incentivise innovative firms to propose new testing solutions, thus tapping into the growing demand for advanced clinical services.

## Notice

The contracting authorities are looking to award contracts (including, a framework agreement for "send away" tests i.e. where not carried out "on the customer's site") for the provision of pathology services, which may involve multiple contracts (for example for specific elements of pathology services and/or separately for analytics and managed laboratory services). The current expectation is that the pathology services will need to cover the full range of pathology disciplines (although potential bidders should be aware that not all contracting authorities will necessarily look to procure services in respect of all of these disciplines and that the scope of the pathology services will be subject to change to reflect changes in test repertoires and the introduction of new test types). For further information relating to this tender opportunity, bidders must access the full documentation set within the Delta Tenderbox. Please follow the instructions within this notice.
