## About this tender

The Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust (LTHT) has prepared this Commercial Prospectus to set out

the opportunity and terms for a partner to license our Intellectual Property (IP)– a proprietary radio-frequency identification (RFID) enabled pathology tracking system (‘The Product’). The Product has

been deployed at LTHT and successfully enhanced the current, in situ, sample management/tracking

system. LTHT is now able to precisely locate each and every RFID It issample in the pathology

workflow. Misplaced or lost samples are now confined to history. The Product permits a more

efficient and effective service which is better for our patients, better for clinical teams and better for

laboratory staff.

The Field of use is limited to Pathology (including but not limited to Histopathology, Biochemistry,

Immunology, Haematology, Microbiology, Transfusion, Transplant Immunology, and Mortuary

services). LTHT retains the IP for use outside this Field.

The Prospectus has been issued to potentially interested parties to explain the Trust’s approach to

selecting a partner for the commercialisation of the Product with a view to accelerating its adoption

across pathology services.
