This project is classified under the health services industry category and aims to address the growing demand for diagnostic services across the region. The tender process is currently in the active stage, utilizing an open procedure method. Interested parties must submit their electronic bids via eTenderwales before the deadline on 12th September 2025. The contracting process is governed by EU Directive 2014/24/EU, with key performance requirements related to social and environmental considerations aimed at delivering Community Benefits. This tender presents numerous opportunities for businesses specialising in health services and diagnostics, particularly those with experience in delivering social value outcomes. Companies proficient in managing diagnostic hubs or with a portfolio in endoscopy services would be well-positioned to contribute. The initiative allows significant room for expansion and innovation, providing a unique opportunity for service providers to engage with multiple Health Boards, including Aneurin Bevan, Cardiff and Vale, and Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Boards. This procurement, valued for its potential community impact, is strategically positioned to enhance both the service delivery and professional development within the healthcare sector of Wales. ## Notice 2.1 Diagnostic services across South-East Wales are under significant pressure, leading to extended waiting times for patients and impacting on a wide range of clinical pathways and services. To provide a sustainable solution to the pressures faced and to deliver further efficiencies through pathway changes, Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board, acting as lead for the contract on behalf of the three University Health Boards in the region (Aneurin Bevan University Health Board (AB UHB), Cardiff and Vale University Health Board (CAV UHB) and Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board (CTM UHB)) wishes to commission a minimum of one imaging Community Diagnostic Hub (CDH) with the option to increase activity and the potential to expand to one further CDH over the course over the contract. The level of growth of activity will be dictated by service demand requirements and will be subject to approval by the Health Boards beyond the initial imaging CDH. In addition, the Health Boards wish to commission the development of a regional Endoscopy Suite comprising up to four rooms to be co-located with an NHS Endoscopy Training Academy with two dedicated training rooms. The CDH and Endoscopy Suite will be ISP staffed, with scope for rotation of NHS employees into these clinical spaces for training purposes. The Endoscopy Training Academy will be developed by the authority and made available to NHS staff for operational purposes once construction is complete. This model is viewed as being more efficient in achieving an accelerated training pathway for trainees in endoscopy without any lowering of standards whereby the co-location of training and service elements enhance decision making and progression to autonomous practice. ### Lot Information Lot 1 2.1 Diagnostic services across South-East Wales are under significant pressure, leading to extended waiting times for patients and impacting on a wide range of clinical pathways and services.
