PSD Scotland is looking for innovative solutions to implement the initial phase of the programme targeted at current and former smokers aged 55-74, as per the UK National Screening Committee's recommendations. While key dates for the engagement event are yet to be confirmed, interested service providers are invited to express their interest by emailing NSS.LungCancerScreening@nhs.scot by 7th August 2026.

It is particularly suitable for businesses experienced in public health initiatives and those eager to establish a presence in Scotland's healthcare sector. The procurement method involves a cooperative market engagement where service providers can influence the design of the screening service model and potentially secure roles in implementing the programme's various stages.
