Greater Glasgow Health Board (more commonly known as NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde) operates the Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre (being the Gartnavel General Hospital and the Lanarkshire Beatson) and has a requirement to replace its treatment Oncology Management System (OMS) and Treatment Planning System (TPS) under the Scottish Government’s Radiotherapy Capital Equipment Replacement Programme (CERP). This NHS Requirement includes the provision for the purchase of the following Products: Lot 1: Oncology Management System (OMS) and Record and Verify System (R&V) Lot 2: Treatment Planning System (TPS) Contractors may tender for any single, or both, lots. Separate tenders should be submitted for each lot. Contractors may submit more than 1 tender for any given lot. A single tender for more than 1 lot combined will not be considered.

Oncology Management System (OMS) and Record and Verify System (R&V)

The Oncology Management System (OMS) must operate as a single entity across the Beatson and be able to accommodate radiotherapy data and images for upwards of 230,000 patients, with over 4,000,000 treatment histories, and have the capacity for increases in radiotherapy workload for the next five years. The estimated increase in database growth is 10GB per annum with accompanying image storage growth of approximately 2TB per annum.

Treatment Planning System (TPS)

The Treatment Planning System is intended to be the department’s primary pre-treatment planning system for almost all radical and palliative treatments. To this extent the system requires capacity to host a large number of simultaneous users executing a variety of planning functions such as outlining, optimisation and dose calculation.
