## Description
NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership (NWSSP) Procurement Services intends to establish a multi-supplier, unranked Framework Agreement for the supply of unvalved disposable FFP3 respirators for use across NHS Wales organisations and other eligible public sector bodies.
The Framework Agreement will provide access to a range of compliant FFP3 respiratory protective equipment designed to protect wearers against airborne particulate hazards in clinical and non-clinical environments. Products awarded to the Framework Agreement will be required to meet the technical, regulatory and quality requirements specified within the procurement documentation, including applicable standards and legislation relevant to FFP3 respiratory protective equipment.
The Framework Agreement is intended to support participating organisations in meeting their respiratory protection requirements by providing access to a variety of FFP3 respirator designs, sizes and fit profiles to accommodate differing user populations and local fit-testing requirements.
Call-off Contracts may be awarded through either Direct Award or Mini-Competition in accordance with the Framework Agreement. Participating organisations will be able to select the product and supplier that best meet their clinical, operational and commercial requirements, taking into account factors such as fit test suitability, product performance, lead times, availability, shelf life and price.
The Framework Agreement is expected to support the ongoing supply of FFP3 respirators for routine healthcare activities, infection prevention and control measures, and emergency preparedness requirements throughout the duration of the agreement.
