This procurement falls within the health industry category and has been characterised as a limited tender, without prior publication of a call for competition, due to the uniqueness of the required equipment. The contract signing date was 28th March 2018, and the associated delivery location is Clydebank, Glasgow. The procurement process is currently at the contract award stage, having been deemed complete. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in advanced medical technology, particularly those developing robotic surgical systems. The exclusive nature of this contract demonstrates the high barriers to entry in this market sector, making it suitable for established manufacturers with proven products, such as Intuitive Surgical. Companies that can offer innovative surgical devices or maintenance services tailored for robotic systems will find ample opportunities to target their offerings for future procurement processes initiated by the National Waiting Times Centre Board or similar entities. ## Notice The Golden Jubilee National Hospital intend to purchase a robotic - assisted surgical system together with maintenance and consumables. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The National Waiting Times Centre Board intends to enter into a contract with Intuitive Surgical as being the only option meeting our requirement.

Due to the above functionality the system seamlessly translates the surgeons hand, wrist and finger movements of the master controls into precise real time movements of the wristed instrument that are designed with seven degrees of motion - a range of motions even greater than the human wrist, The vision is equipped with a high definition 3D endoscope and image processing equipment that provides to true to life images of the patients anatomy. A view of the operating field is available to the entire operating room team on a large viewing monitor. The wide angled screen provides the surgical assistant at the patients side with a broad perspective and visualisation of the procedure whilst the surgeon operates seated at a console with the master controls viewing a high definition 3D image inside the patients body. The Intuitive Surgical Da Vinci Systems remains the most ubiquitous robot designed to facilitate complex minimally invasive surgery across multiple specialities and multiple body compartments. The Intuitive Surgical Robot Da Vinci has been the subject of in excess of 7000 peer review publications and studies with a wealth of regulatory approvals covering a wide spectrum of surgical procedures much greater than alternatives with lesser functionality available on the market.
