## Summary

Newcastle University has awarded a contract for the provision of business consultancy services to assist in commercializing university research. The tender, with the title "(NU/1433- 41) IngeniumAI: The Provision of Business Consultancy to Assist Commercialisation of University Research," was for services in the business and management consultancy and related services category. The procurement stage was selective, using a restricted procedure. The award date was January 4, 2023, with Giles Wilson as the active supplier for the contract.

This tender by Newcastle University presents an opportunity for businesses involved in business consultancy and research commercialisation to engage in supporting early disease diagnosis initiatives. Companies with expertise in producing business plans, obtaining approvals, and engaging with funding entities would be suitable to compete in this tender. The contract aims to accelerate disease diagnosis processes, thereby reducing healthcare costs and mortality rates associated with delays in treatment by providing early disease screening solutions through software development.

## Notice

At IngeniumAI we aim to address the unnecessary delays in disease diagnosis. Currently the diagnosis of many diseases takes far too long. For example, to receive a diagnosis the average pulmonary hypertension (PH) patient has 5.3 GP visits and 3 referrals, taking on average 2 years, 2 months. By this point treatment options are severely limited. If left untreated the average time to mortality is only 2 years, 6 months. Delays in diagnosis of PH are estimated to cost more than PS27,000 per patient in additional healthcare resources and more than PS100,000 in wider economic costs. The total UK cost is more than PS250m per year, most of which could be eliminated with early screening. Globally these delays cause approximately 300,000 unnecessary deaths per year. We are responding to the opportunity by developing software to automatically analyse routine CT scans to enable early screening for diseases.
