The WA health system provides diagnostic and interventional medical imaging services to inpatients and outpatients across Western Australia using specialised imaging techniques and the latest release technology. To facilitate the continued renewal of medical imaging technology used across the WA health system, Health Support Services (HSS) established a Whole-of-Health panel arrangement (Contract HSS302717) for the supply of state-of-the-art and technologically current medical imaging equipment in December 2019. 

Contract HSS302717 covers the supply, delivery, maintenance, installation and commissioning of Medical Imaging Equipment to Health Service Providers (HSPs) to meet their requirements under the following eleven (11) product categories:

• Category 1 – General Purpose X-Ray and Fluoroscopy Units;
• Category 2 – Mammography Units
• Category 3 – Mobile C-Arm Fluoroscopy Units;
• Category 4 – Diagnostic Ultrasound Units
• Category 5 – Digital Angiographic Units
• Category 6 – Mobile X-Ray Units
• Category 7 – Dental X-Ray Units
• Category 8 – Computed Tomography (CT) Units
• Category 9 – Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Units
• Category 10 – Medical Imaging Peripherals (including flat panel detectors)
• Category 11 – Point of Care Ultrasound Units

The WA health system’s medical imaging equipment requirements have expanded since the commencement of this Contract and therefore HSS has identified the need for additional product categories to Contract HSS302717. 

This Request (a Refresh) seeks to add the following two (2) new product categories:

• Category 12 - Nuclear Medicine; and
• Category 13 – Bone Densitometry.

In addition to the supply of the above-mentioned equipment, this Request also seeks pricing for the provision of optional service and maintenance (basic and comprehensive), as well as additional options and accessories relating to the offered equipment. Consumables do not form a part of this Request.

Respondents may submit an offer for either one or both of the new categories identified (Categories 12 and 13). Offers are not being invited for any of the existing Categories 1-11.
