This Prior Information Notice (PIN) is separate to any tender opportunity.

NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT) seeks to establish a Framework Agreement for the Supply of services across a range of Lots for Blood Irradiation - Xray and Gamma. This Framework will be utilised until the Home Office FieldFare project and accompanying supply contracts are live.

Participating Authority's are:

Northern Ireland Blood Transfusion Service

The services required are:

Lot 1: Supply & Maintenance of New Xray Irradiators

Lot 2: Maintenance of existing Xray Irradiators

Lot 3: Maintenance of existing Gamma Irradiators

Lot 4: Supply & reporting of Dose Mapping Xray

Lot 5: Supply & reporting of Dose Mapping Gamma

This process is to initially ensure capable Suppliers are available to the Authority/participating Authority's as and when required. A mini competition will take place for any future purchasing whereby Suppliers will be required to satisfy the technical specification in full including all PASS/FAIL mandatory, quality requirements and submit their commercial offer. Information will be supplied at the next stage - call for competition. Please direct any questions to tennille.madigan@nhsbt.nhs.uk
