Tender description

The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency requires a UK Approved Body that is capable of certifying IVD devices produced by Scientific Research and Innovation that are placed on the GB market. Lot 1: Scientific Research and Innovation (SR&I) (previously known as NIBSC) is placing In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) devices on the GB market under EU IVD Directive 98/79/EC using EU Notified Body that issues CE certificates that are currently recognised on the GB market. Since 1 January 2021, there have been a number of changes to Medical Devices Regulations 2002, introduced through secondary legislation - Amendment of the Medical Devices (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019, to how medical devices, including IVD devices, are placed on the market in Great Britain (England, Wales and Scotland).<br/>Due to the changes, SR&I must appoint a UK Approved Body that can certify all Annex II List A and B IVD devices produced by SR&I that are placed on the GB market. <br/>This appointment will allow SR&I to continue placing IVD devices on the GB market after transition deadlines and support NHS and NHSBT laboratories and other diagnostic laboratories in safeguarding patients’ health and wellbeing.
