## Summary

The Chelsea & Westminster Hospital and The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trusts are currently conducting a selective procurement process for the provision of Medical Physics services, with a contract value of £400,000. This tender is part of a strategic initiative to ensure the effective delivery of imaging services at their facilities located in London and Middlesex, and is classified under Radiation Protection Services. The tender publication date is 18 November 2020, and the tender period is set to close on 9 March 2021, with the contract expected to commence on 12 May 2021 and run until 11 May 2024.

This tender presents significant opportunities for specialised service providers in the healthcare sector, particularly those experienced in medical physics and imaging services. Businesses equipped to offer efficient, innovative, and cost-effective solutions will be well-positioned to compete for this contract, ensuring that they meet the Trust's need for high-quality support as part of their long-term operational plans.

## Notice

The Trust offers a wide range of specialist and general hospital services at our two main hospital sites, Chelsea and Westminster Hospital (London SW10) and West Middlesex University Hospital (Middlesex TW7). The Imaging service reflects the needs of teaching hospital and district general hospital environments and imaging modalities include CT, MRI, Interventional Radiology, Radio-nuclide Imaging and therapy, Mammography, General 'plain film' imaging, DXA scanning, ultrasound and laser treatment. We undertake approximately 500,000 examinations each year caring for inpatients, outpatients, emergency patients and those referred by colleagues in the community including general practitioners. Both main Trust sites have Emergency Departments providing 24/7/365 service to the local area and beyond. We aspire to be an innovative and high quality imaging department and are proud of the QSI accreditation that we obtained for the imaging department across both sites in 2019. In order to provide our imaging service we require certain services provided by medical physics. Chelsea and Westminster Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust does not currently have an in house medical physics department and therefore requires these services to be provided by an outside provider. The needs are currently covered under three contracts with different providers. As part of the Trust's long term financial plan and to reassure ourselves and commissioners that we are spending public money wisely we are retendering the service. Please note physics support for ultrasound is not part of the tender. It is expected that the successful bidder will deliver a robust efficient and cost effective service.
