Lot details

Lot 1

The Molecular Pathology Diagnostic Service (MPDS) at UHB needs to be able to deliver a quick and highly sensitive assessment of RET and MET alterations in lung cancer samples, which is required prior to the prescription of drugs targeting RET and MET. A quick turn around time is required, since lung cancer patients need to be started on the treatment as soon as possible. Lung tumour samples are of small size; there is therefore a need for a highly sensitive technology with a very low rate of failure. MPDS receives at least 350 lung cancer samples every month for MET exon 14 mutation and RET translocation testing; the numbers are likely to increase; the technology therefore needs to be adaptable to the needs. In order to take into account the various clinical circumstances, the technology needs to allow MPDS to perform RET and MET exon 14 alterations within a few hours for selected tumours.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Pathology services (85111800); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 8538,3731 median · 19.7 average (22,930 of 38,373 with a bid count)1.8 average (24,592 of 38,373 with named award suppliers)10 comparable price pairs

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
