## Description
Joint Preliminary Market Engagement for United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust (ULTH) and Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust (NUH) for Enteral Products and Services provision. 
UK1 notice UK-1301 ULTH (https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/051191-2026) 
UK1 notice UK-12392 NUH (https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/058921-2026) 
Atamis project reference: C457309
PME is via the Atamis e-tendering portal: 
https://atamis-1928.my.site.com/s/Welcome 
United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust will be acting as the procurement lead for this Preliminary Market Engagement and the planned joint procurement on behalf of Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust.  
ULTH and NUH are seeking to engage, pre-procurement, with providers of Enteral Nutrition Products with capability to provide an Enteral Nutrition Nursing Service. In order to help shape the requirement, we are asking that suppliers review and complete our Preliminary Market Engagement questions to provide insights which will help to inform our development of a specification and contract opportunity which is attractive to the market and helps us to improve value for money.
The aim of the planned joint procurement is to find one supplier who can deliver these products and services for both NHS Trusts. The procurement will be one process which results in two identical contracts; one for each NHS Trust. 
The anticipated values of the contracts are approximately: 
United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust:  £8,000,000 over 4 years 
Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust:   £14,000,000 over 4 years 
Contract values are provided as an estimate only. This is not guaranteed and is subject to change depending on the information provided via Preliminary Market Engagement and any changing national guidance on Enteral Nutrition provision.
ULTH and NUH are currently exploring sourcing options and no decision on the route to market has been determined at this time. All respondents agree to participate in this PME process at their own expense and in acknowledgment that a route to market has yet to be determined by the Authority.
