How to win: Co-Developing the 'Digestive Disease Centre' at University Hospital Southampton, Hybrid Procurement and Sponsorship Opportunity

About this contract

UHS is seeking to engage with interested parties to discuss and refine an opportunity to become a strategic endoscopy partner to the Trust. UHS provides a regional endoscopy service to a population of 3m+, offering a comprehensive range of diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. Following a fire earlier this year, UHS has reviewed its long-term endoscopy requirements and is considering a new purpose-built regional diagnostic endoscopy centre situated close to the main hospital. UHS has existing endoscopy equipment to the value of approximately £8-10m. This will need to be refreshed throughout this contract. UHS has an indicative budget of £20-25m for the design and construction of the new centre. This will be designed to meet current and projected future endoscopy and motility needs, 'a one-stop-shop' and be an important centre to both trial new technology and techniques and provide training for the next generation of the endoscopy workforce. This opportunity is to explore and discuss how a partnership approach may drive better outcomes for patients, for innovation, for UHS clinicians, and for the partner[S(1.1][L(1.2]. This opportunity may include, but not necessarily be limite
