List of diagnostics eligible to tender for procurement by WHO in 2014 (including WHO prequalified diagnostics)
Since 1988, WHO has performed assessments of commercially available diagnostics for HIV, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C. Previously, this process was called the WHO Test Kit Evaluation programme, it was the predecessor of the WHO Prequalification of Diagnostics Programme. During this transition period, products that were previously evaluated by the WHO Test Kit Evaluation programme and found to meet the acceptance criteria will still be considered eligible for procurement. In the future, successful WHO prequalification will become the sole determinant of eligibility for procurement by WHO. Currently, products that meet either of the following criteria are eligible to participate in the WHO process for establishing a long term agreement (LTA) for procurement by WHO through a request for proposal (RFP).
1) Criteria for all types of assays (HIV, HCV, HBsAg serology, HIV virological, CD4 numeration technologies:
a) Meet all requirements for WHO prequalification by WHO Prequalification of Diagnostics programme, including dossier assessment, site inspection and laboratory evaluation according to the acceptance criteria below;
2) Interim criteria for HIV, HCV, HBsAg serology assays only that are not yet WHO prequalified:
a) acceptable results for laboratory evaluation in the WHO Test Kit Evaluation programme according to acceptance criteria below, and
b) have submitted an application to the WHO Prequalification of Diagnostics programme.
Laboratory evaluation acceptance criteria for serology assays:
Analyte EIAs Simple assays/rapid diagnostic tests
anti-HIV-1/2 and/or HIV-1 p24 Ag
Initial sensitivity: 100%
Final specificity: ≥ 98%
Initial sensitivity: ≥ 99%
Final specificity: ≥ 98%

Ineligibility for procurement
Products may be ineligible for procurement by WHO if made obsolete by their manufacturer, if de-listed from the list of WHO prequalified products, if Field Safety Notice or Notice of Concern is active.

http://www.who.int/diagnostics_laboratory/procurement/complaints/en/Shelf life
Shelf life upon manufacture is stated by the manufacturer at the time of WHO prequalification, and
supported by evidence in the product dossier. Guaranteed minimum shelf life upon delivery is likely to
be less and should be negotiated as part of the bidding process. For this list, shelf life upon manufacture
