This procurement aims to establish a digital technology infrastructure that enables the sharing of radiology images across multiple trusts in the West of England, enhancing clinical care pathways. The contract, valued at £49.85 million, was signed on 20th January 2025, following an open procurement procedure. The framework includes four lots: PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System), RIS (Radiology Information System), a sharing solution, and associated storage solutions. The procurement was part of a single supplier framework to be accessed by trusts including Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, and several other regional trusts. This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for companies specialising in software packages and information systems, especially those capable of offering comprehensive imaging and information sharing solutions. Businesses that can provide robust, safe, and efficient digital infrastructure for radiology image sharing would be well-suited to compete, particularly those experienced in long-term healthcare technology projects. Engaging in this framework can lead to substantial contract lengths of up to ten years, opening avenues for sustained collaboration and development in the digital infrastructure of healthcare services in the West of England. ## Notice Trusts across the West of England are committed to the implementation of a digital technology infrastructure enabling radiology image sharing. The West of England Target Operating Model for imaging across the Network is to transform and develop imaging services to support growth in activity and complexity of clinical care pathways resulting in improved patient outcomes. Pivotal to the delivery of this vision is securing the digital infrastructure to share images and associated information between providers and consumers of imaging services. This sharing of images must be safe, timely, resilient and efficient. This is a procurement for a single supplier framework which will be awarded to one supplier only to allow all trusts in the West of England Imaging Network to call off from for the following 4 lots. 1 PACS 2 RIS 3 A sharing solution 4 Associated Storage ### Lot Information PACS - Picture Archiving and Communication System https://discovery.ariba.com/profile/AN11181181578.
