A pipeline has been launched for 12 Lead Electrocardiogram Market EngagementThe contract start Date is 01 April 2017 Approach to market date is 11 November 2016Arden & Greater East Midlands CSU on behalf of Birmingham South Central CCG is seeking expressions of interest from suitably qualified providers for a 12 Lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) Interpretation Service. For the avoidance of doubt, separate arrangements are already in place for the provision of the associated recording services. This notice is intended to inform providers of the intention of the CCG to open a 2nd window for their existing AQP (Any Qualified Provider) list and that they intend to hold a market engagement event. A further notice will be issued when the CCG is seeking to procure the service.This is a potential opportunity from the government, and the pipeline gives advance notice of an opportunity that might be offered by the public sector in the future – allowing potential suppliers to plan accordingly. When a public sector organisation publishes a pipeline notice, it does not necessarily mean that an opportunity will be offered in the future.For more information contact: Arden & GEM CSU, Kingston House, 438-450 High Street, West Bromwich B70 9LD.
