Value Based Procurement (VBP) is founded in the principles within Value Based and Prudent Healthcare. The concept of systematically capturing and measuring both clinical and patient outcomes are firmly embedded within the strategic plans of all organisations and through the recommendations outlined at a National level i.e., Planned Care Board, coupled with the work in place to capture cost in a range of areas using the technology i.e., TDABC Time Driven Activity Based Costing and PLICs Patient Level Costing. Triangulating Value Based Procurement with these approaches will only add to the delivery of a Value Based healthcare system for NHS Wales.

- Technical: 60

- Staff
- Names and qualifications of delivery staff must be submitted
- Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
- “All Wales Ophthalmology Consumables Framework Agreement” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
