Roche Diagnostics has been awarded a seven-year contract by Barts Health NHS Trust to transform its laboratory services across London. The investment, which follows a competitive tender process, will see laboratories at St Bartholomew's Hospital, The Royal London Hospital, Whipps Cross University Hospital and Newham University Hospital upgraded to benefit from the latest in advanced automation.
The Barts Health NHS Trust sought a partner with the skills and experience to enhance and upgrade the existing laboratories, and Roche Diagnostics was awarded the contract due to its ability to provide new instrumentation, advanced automation and a managed service in a number of medical disciplines across all four sites.
