### Lot Information

Lot 1

Procurement of a Phramacovigilance system to support the data entry, processing and reporting of drug and device adverse events for a portfolio of academic clinical research led by the University of Edinburgh. The contract is awarded for an initial period of 5 years, with an additional 24 months extension available.. As this was an NCA there was no evaluation involved regarding quality however, the system does not allow for no quality % to be inserted.

### Procurement Information

The University of Edinburgh require a pharmacovigilance system for recording, storing, analysing and reporting drug and device adverse events. The research and clinical trials that the University of Edinburgh typically conducts includes: academic clinical trials using marketed drugs; non-regulated clinical research studies; and regulated medical devices. These clinical trials require bespoke Serious Adverse Effect (SAE) forms that capture only the information that is required. No other system is available that is suited to the University of Edinburgh requirements as other systems are far more complex, do not allow bespoke form entry and are tailored to either the pharmaceutical industry for drug development or to companies developing medical devices. Based on the above, competition is absent due to technical reasons as no other system is available that suits the University of Edinburgh requirements.
