As a part of the planned sourcing activity for the provision of a digital microscope slide scanner, Public Health England (PHE) is organising a Supplier Day on the 23rd July 2018 at the PHE Colindale site (London, NW9 5EQ).

- Magnifications of x10, x40 and x100 (with oil immersion).
- Unlimited web access for scan analysis for participants.
- Automatic slide scanning facility for 3-5 slides with possibility to expand to 50 slides.
- Provide scans at different magnifications for participants to be able to switch between magnifications.
- Be able to perform fluorescence microscope.
- Be able to visualise and scan wet preps with coverslips.
- Be able to visualise and scan selotape mounted slides.
- Be able to scan and visualise tissue culture flasks/ dishes.
- The possibility to add different objective lens and filters.
- The possibility of including a graticule in the eyepiece.

Although this will be a capital purchase, it is intended that any maintenance, service, support and supply of consumables (if applicable) will be covered for the lifetime of the equipment or until PHE re-tenders the requirement. Any equipment and services being offered must support International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 15189: 2012 under which PHE is operating.

The Supplier Day is organised with a view to providing PHE with insights which will inform the specifications. The Supplier Day will also be used to alert the market to the possible upcoming opportunity, provide the provisional project timescales, tender process and desired outcomes.

If you are interested in attending the Supplier Day, please can you contact  for further information. Time slots for presentation and question and answer sessions will be allocated on a first come first serve basis.
