The brief

The appointment of GXO Logistics Ltd to deliver the Managed Service Provider contract for the continued provision of Faecal Immunochemical Test (FIT) home testing kits to those eligible for the bowel cancer screening programme throughout England.

These tests allow those at risk of cancer, and requiring further tests, to be identified and provision is an essential component of the screening pathway.

Further tests after FIT are typically screening specialist practitioner review and a screening colonoscopy.

The MSP contract broadly covers; the sending of personalised FIT kits to eligible participants in England, management of the logistics to return kits to the five NHS bowel cancer screening hubs, the supply of analysers and consumables to all hubs to test the kits, provision of training for hub staff to analyse the kits, the systems to allow results to be transferred to the Bowel Cancer Screening System (BCSS) software and a helpdesk function to resolve any issues with the service provision.
