Planning and budget

No Engagement Notice Rationale
Market engagement was undertaken, though a pre-market engagement notice was not issued due to prior notices already covering the scope. Under the Pathology Solutions Prior Information Notice (PIN) (OCID: ocds-h6vhtk-0468c3), 20 suppliers were consulted across two lots via Teams meetings. For Slide Storage, a Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) notice was published, and discussions with 5 suppliers identified an urgent need for a procurement route focused on specialised storage and archiving for blocks and slides. This requirement aligns more effectively with the Anatomical Pathology Automation Framework, offering a streamlined approach for customer engagement. HTE considers the elapsed engagement period sufficient to confirm market readiness.
