Lot 1
No lot description published.
NHS Shared Business Services Limited (NHS SBS) act in an Agency capacity for and on behalf of its customers (Approved Organisations) - existing and new. These comprise of NHS and Social Care organisations (whether acting individually, or on behalf of, or together as members of any consortia) along with any other public or private sector bodies which NHS SBS authorises to use the resulting Framework Agreement. As an Accredited Framework Provider under the NHS England Accredited Scheme, NHS SBS intends publish a joint procurement with NHS Supply Chain Ltd (NHSSC) to put in place a Framework Agreement for the Distribution of Advanced Wound Care Products that aligns with the Accreditation Programme standards which will be used by NHS SBS Approved Organisations. NHS Supply Chain and NHS Shared Business Services intend to work in collaboration with suppliers and distributors to provide the most optimal solution for wound care provision across the NHS by aligning resources and capabilities. This is a renewal of part of an existing NHS SBS agreement - Advanced Wound Care and Lymphoedema Products and Services, however, the proposal is to develop a collaborative framework where NHS SBS and NHS Supply Chain jointly procure a distributions service enabling the goods available through the NHS Supply Chain framework to be delivered within the community and wider non acute environments. Further details can be found in the specification attached to this notice. Our Approved Organisation list can be found on: https://www.sbs.nhs.uk/services/framework-agreements-categories/ We are committed to working with suppliers who are dedicated to Sustainability and Social Value and there will be a significant weighting on these elements in the tender. The procurement is subject to Cabinet Office Controls and therefore any elements of the proposed the procurement strategy may change, following Cabinet Office Controls assurance.

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 64. The category anchor is Courier services (64120000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.
| Comparison set | Procedures | Reported bids per procedure | Named award suppliers | Price evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Market: CPV division 64 | 697 | 2 median · 16.6 average (154 of 697 with a bid count) | 2.2 average (191 of 697 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Same buyer | 5 | Not published | 1 average (2 of 5 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Delivery region: UK | 187 | 3 median · 18.1 average (43 of 187 with a bid count) | 3.9 average (55 of 187 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Similar published value (0.5×–2×) | 22 | Not published | Not published | Not published |
“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.
Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
No planning milestones published.
No linked framework, prior procurement or reprocurement published.
Diagnostic view. “Not published” means this current release does not provide a value.
