The tender, titled "Temperature Monitoring & Calibration Systems Market Engagement," targets the services industry category with a focus on pathology services and related apparatus. This initiative is essential for supporting the multi-site operating model of North West London Pathology (NWLP), which serves numerous hospital sites across London. Interested suppliers can respond to a Request for Information by 10th September 2026, noon, which forms part of early pre-market engagement to explore potential solutions and delivery models. The contract, with an estimated value of £400,000, is set to commence on 5th July 2027 and extend through to 4th July 2032, with possibilities for renewal. This procurement offers substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in temperature monitoring solutions, especially those capable of ensuring UKAS compliance and supporting a complex and widespread network of laboratory services. Companies that provide advanced diagnostic testing support, particularly those adept at managing intensive requirements such as blood transfusion and clinical storage solutions, are well-suited to compete. Additionally, the opportunity is open to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), providing a platform for growth and innovation in delivering high-quality diagnostic testing services to the public healthcare system across North West London. ## Notice North West London Pathology (NWLP) is a partnership between Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, and The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. It is hosted by Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust and operates as a jointly owned pathology network with a hub-and-spoke model across seven hospital sites. NWLP delivers approximately 36 million tests annually, supports around 280 GP practices across the North West London Integrated Care System, and serves a population of more than 2.8 million NWLP delivers services from laboratories located at Hillingdon Hospital, Mount Vernon Hospital, Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, West Middlesex University Hospital, St Mary's Hospital, Hammersmith Hospital, and Charing Cross Hospital. The service supports acute, specialist, and community care, providing disciplines including Blood Sciences, Infection and Immunity, Cellular Pathology, Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics, and a range of specialist and referral services. Due to the scale and breadth of these services, temperature monitoring requirements vary significantly, ranging from support to acute blood transfusion and clinical services, through the storage of blood components, reagents and consumables used in sensitive and critical testing procedures, to the long term storage of clinical material. Operating across this geographically dispersed, multi site estate, NWLP manages a complex laboratory operating model to ensure safe, timely, and high quality diagnostic testing. As part of ongoing service development and transformation, NWLP is developing a business case to review options for the procurement of a UKAS compliant temperature monitoring solution capable of supporting its multi site operating model. This Request for Information forms part of early pre market engagement to better understand available solutions, delivery models, and cost effective approaches to implementing a robust and scalable temperature monitoring system aligned to regulatory requirements and operational need Suppliers who are interested in this opportunity should complete the attached questionnaire and respond back by 10th September at 12 noon 2026.
