The aim of this prior information notice is to find suppliers operating in this field of business, get information of the solutions available in the market, and inform our plans and requirements for the forthcoming procurement. SUBJECT OF PROCUREMENT The subject of procurement is radioactive products used in brachytherapy for treatment of epibulbar and intraocular tumors. The procurement includes Iodine-125 (I-125) brachytherapy seeds (activity approx. 500-600 MBq per seed), Ruthenium-106 (Ru-106) eye plaques/applicators, and accessories used in plaque positioning and treatment planning (e.g. dummy plaques/plaque templates). The respondents are asked to provide information on the following questions: - Which I-125 brachytherapy seeds, Ru-106 eye plaques/applicators, and related accessories are included in your current product portfolio? - What are typical delivery times for these products? - Please indicate available options related to accessories/equipment for plaque sterilization, transport, and storage; quality assurance (measurements carried out locally for wipe test samples, depth dose curves, etc.); treatment planning systems (software, training, user support, etc.), if any. - Any other comments, observations, or information that may be relevant for the preparation of the procurement. RESPONSES TO THE REQUEST FOR INFORMATION The response to this request for information should include description to the above questions. Within the answer feel free to attach any brochures available of the products/services. Responses are requested to be submitted by 23.10.2026 at 12.00 (UTC +3) at the latest, to the email address kilpailutus.tiimi@hus.fi The title or message field of the e-mail should mention: Request for information: HUS 277-2026 Radioactive seeds and plaques. INFORMATION FOR THE PROCEDURE This notice is not a call for tenders. HUS may specify the subject of the procurement in a subsequent contract notice. The requirements for a subsequent procurement and invitation to tender will be determined based on the needs of the contracting entity, with the aim of considering the information obtained in the market survey. This notice provides the information currently held by the contracting entity on the procurement to operators on the market. The procurement is in the planning stage and the plans, with their schedules and information, can still be specified and changed. The request for information does not oblige the procurement unit to carry out the actual procurement, but the decision to initiate a possible procurement process is made separately. Neither the request for information nor its replies are binding on either party. Responding to a request for information does not affect the position of the tenderer in the forthcoming tender. The costs associated with responding to a request for information are borne by the respondent, and HUS does not pay compensation for responding to a request for information or participating the procurement procedure.,",
