NHSG's requirements are divided into 3 lots, as follows: Lot 1: Biochemistry and Pathology (Histopathology and Cytopathology); Lot 2: Haematology and Immunology; Lot 3: Bacteriology and Virology. The successful bidder in each lot will be responsible for the provision, implementation, calibration, commissioning and maintenance of all equipment necessary to deliver the managed services and for provision of all consumables used in connection therewith. It is intended an award will be made to one successful Bidder in each lot who will be a prime contractor assuming full responsibility for provision of all the managed services to NHSG in that lot.

Clinical biochemistry At the ARI site replace the existing analysers and automation and introduce a new system and new equipment that will minimise manual intervention in specimen processing through the use of run-through labelling, fully automated pre-analytical, analytical and post-analytical systems, connected to a single track with on-line centrifugation. At Dr Gray's, provide off-line sample storage and archive solution, via the middleware, with full visibility of location of specimens forwarded to ARI for further analysis. At both sites — deliver process improvements and operational efficiencies that in turn facilitate more efficient workforce planning and 24/7 working Provide common instrumentation and middleware to facilitate contingency planning and cross site transfer of work. Provide a resource to develop business generation and innovation opportunities. Reduce the administrative burden required to meet UKAS accreditation. Incorporate existing LC MS/MS, Capillary GC and HPLC equipment into the new service provision allowing for replacement over the 10 year term. It is expected that bidders will be able to demonstrate the solutions offered in situations similar to those proposed for NHSG. Pathology (Histopathology and Cytopathology) The department requires changes to the layout of the department which enable the implementation of a lean workflow from sample receipt to archive. An automated solution is required where possible at each stage of the process. It is expected that the equipment offered will enhance the specimen pathway process e.g. through a tracking system, as well as pre and post-analytical processes and be compatible with current/future LIMS systems.
