The Eastern Cape Department of Health is seeking qualified service providers to deliver MRI radiology services, including the performance of MRI scans and the reporting of results. Bidders must ensure that their radiologists are registered with the Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA) and provide proof of qualifications.

Additionally, a turnaround time of one week for non-urgent cases and two hours for urgent cases is required.
This contract emphasizes the importance of local service provision, as the service provider must be situated in East London to facilitate emergency services and patient access. Bidders are also required to provide a server connection for image transmission and ensure compliance with all relevant health regulations. The evaluation will follow a structured process, focusing on administrative compliance, non-negotiable requirements, and pricing, with a preference point system in place to promote specific goals such as local ownership and historically disadvantaged individuals.
This tender is suitable for radiology practices, medical imaging companies, and healthcare providers with expertise in MRI technology and reporting. Businesses must have the capability to comply with local health regulations and provide timely services.
