Published requirement description

Supply Chain Coordination Limited (“NHS Supply Chain”) is exploring options in developing a procurement for the provision of External Defibrillation Equipment, Consumables and Support Services. The procurement covers the supply of external defibrillation equipment, related services, and accessories, including external defibrillators, consumables and spare parts, and mechanical chest compression devices.

Our aim is to support the needs of our customers and supporting whole life cost analysis by enabling the combined procurement of capital equipment and consumables. As part of this approach, External Defibrillation consumables will be removed from the Electrodes, Ultrasound Gels, Defibrillation and Related Consumables framework and incorporated into the new External Defibrillation Equipment, Consumables and Support Services 2027 agreement. This will be delivered through a phased launch, with Capital Equipment available from 2nd August 2027, and the associated Consumables from 1st February 2028.

Lots and requirements (5)Procurement structure

5 lots · all with a published value · evaluation weights differ by lot

Every one of these 5 lots carries the same published figure, £160,000,000: it is the framework's maximum for the whole notice, not each lot's own budget, and no share per lot is published. The cards below say ceiling above rather than repeat it.

Lot #1Automated External Defibrillators (AED) + AED with manual overrideRenewal 2 yrsSMEVCSEceiling above

This category covers Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) defined as portable medical devices used to analyse cardiac rhythm and deliver defibrillation therapy to patients experiencing sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) providing clear visual and audible instructions that guide the user through each step of the process. The scope of this category includes fully automatic, semi-automatic and manual override AEDs supplied for use in hospital and public access environments

What it takes to win
i

How this buyer will score bids.

The evaluation criteria and weights exactly as published on the notice, grouped by family (price, quality, social value and so on).

Evaluation split and conditions of participation as published; the tender pack may add more
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 4 points.
  • “External Defibrillation Equipment, Consumables and Support Services” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract: call-offs may be direct or by further competition.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.

The marketMedical consumables (CPV 3314) · UK-wide
What to do with it
How often do SMEs win?
i

How often small and medium firms win.

Share of awards where the winner’s size is known.

The counts under this question show how many awards have a known supplier size.

Last 36 months.

Buyer: 1 of 1 known-size awards · market: CPV 3314 · UK-wide, n=98
1 of 155%

Small firms have won here. Neither number says whether you qualify; it describes who has been winning.

How often do local suppliers win?
i

How often local firms win similar work.

Winners with a registered address in the delivery region, out of awards with a known address.

Here, local means the winner is registered in the region where that contract was delivered.

A local branch does not count if the registered address is elsewhere.

Last 36 months.

Buyer: no winner locations published · market: CPV 3314 · UK-wide, n=115
—44%

No winner locations published for this authority. Local means a registered address in Greater London.

How long to a decision?
i

How long buyers here take to decide after bids close.

Middle value in days from the deadline to the first award notice, on competitions that published both dates.

Only decided tenders count, so slow ones still waiting are not in.

Last 36 months.

Buyer: 23 decided notices · market: CPV 3314 · UK-wide, n=23
107 days97 days

Half of these awards were announced within 107 days of the bid deadline.

How often single-bid or direct?
i

How often work is awarded with no recorded rival.

Direct awards and tenders where every published lot count shows one bid.

The market share is a minimum: some awards have no bid count.

Thin markets produce this too; it is not proof of a tailored specification.

Last 36 months.

Buyer: exactly 3 of 4 procurements with awards had no recorded rival · market: CPV 3314 · UK-wide, n=41
3 of 437%

Direct awards or one recorded bid are common here. Check the route before spending time on a bid.

How many bids did past lots attract?

i

How many bids past lots received.

Each colour is a bid-count range. Only competed lots with a published count are included.

Past bids do not predict this tender.

How did awards compare with estimates?

i

Where winning prices landed against estimates.

Each colour shows awards below, close to or above the published estimate, one lot at a time.

On a framework or DPS, prices are agreed when work is called off.

Past prices are a guide, not a bid price.

Last 36 months.

Not comparable on a framework or DPS. The notice sets up a supplier panel and a ceiling value; what the work actually costs is agreed later, on each call-off or mini-competition, and those publish as contract notices of their own. The award-vs-estimate record of this market therefore sits on the call-offs; this page shows it on the contracts, not on the panel that frames them.

About this data
  • Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0. New notices arrive through the day; the figures are rebuilt nightly.
  • Two views, kept apart. The authority’s own track record and the wider market for the same kind of work sit side by side and are never mixed. Where the local picture is too thin, a figure widens to a broader market and says which one it used.
  • Forecasts are labelled. The price forecast and its range, possible competitors and the earlier-work matches are our estimates from past awards: not published facts, not win chances and not price advice. Official notices do not say who is bidding.
  • Every figure shows what it rests on. Not every notice publishes a bid count, a value or a delivery region, so each figure carries the number of records behind it, and one built on few records is marked as such. The on a figure explains it; the counting rules are in the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.
