What is being bought

Published requirement description

Digital Diagnostic Solutions is to be the new Framework for the Medical IT Departmental

Software and Hardware Solutions framework within NHS Supply Chain.

Digital systems are the backbone of any hospital with every department requiring a way to

store, manage and share their data across sites, regions and even whole nations.

This framework will offer customers access to a number of suppliers across different clinical

areas that sit within the Diagnostics, Equipment and Services area of NHS Supply Chain.

This Framework Agreement will offer managed and non-managed service contracts as well as

software only.

Customers will have the ability to specify and create a fully bespoke Digital Diagnostic

Solution for different requirements that can range from a single site or department to a

solution across multiple departments or Trusts. Precise quantities are unknown. The

estimated value over the total Framework Agreement term (including any extension options)

is £700,000,000 including growth.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 80 of 140 points: a 10% discount moves about 8 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “Digital Diagnostic Solutions” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
