NOT A LIVE OPPORTUNITY Correction of UK6 2025/S 000-071151 and UK12 2025/S 000-072410 This Tender notice is issued in effort to correct the previously published UK6 2025/S 000-071151. The procurement was awarded before it was noted that the wrong scoring methodology had been used in the evaluation process. As this could have changed the result, a UK12 2025/S 000-072410 was posted to withdraw the award until it could be Re-Evaluated correctly. This has now been completed but the Find a Tender system does not allow us to modify the already posted notices nor can we link a new UK6 to the already established UK4 2025/S 000-049162 As such we are raising this new UK4 tied to UK3 2026/S 000-005639 so we can accelerate the process, with a new UK6 to follow. RBC are completing a ITT exercise for the provision of Coroner's Service Toxicology Contract - The scope for this project is to cover the following key deliverables: Testing analysis and interpretation of toxicological specimens, Interpretive toxicology reports to HM Senior Coroner and Pathologist within contract timescales, Maintenance of adequate contact between HM Senior Coroner's Officers and staff, Attendance at inquest as required and Monthly statistics and performance indicators
