Coverage: 15 active published awards; 12 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments.

Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

No-engagement rationaleNot published
Procedure rationaleThe cyclotron has been manufactured, installed and maintained for a number of years by GE Healthcare. Given the highly specialist nature of the equipment and risks associated with it, only GE Healthcare personnel have the knowledge and competence to make any adjustment, maintenance or repairs. Effective maintenance of the cyclotron requires a supplier with access to the associated software, replacement parts and consumable items that are produced/provided by GE Healthcare. In addition, from time to time components become End-Of-Life and can no longer be maintained, and GE Healthcare are continually developing replacement components, along with their integration. For the reasons above, technically it is not possible for any supplier other than GE Healthcare to safely and reliably maintain the cyclotron.
