    NHS Supply Chain expects to provide successful Suppliers with the opportunity to offer additional savings to

    customers through the provision of discounted pricing, value added offerings and commitment initiatives.

    NHS Supply Chain will share savings information in order to assist its customers with making informed

    procurement decisions.

    NHS Supply Chain intends to enter into arrangements under which it will be entitled to purchase supplies

    and/or services which it will make available for purchase by

    1. any NHS Trust;
    2. any other NHS entity;
    3. any government department, agency or other statutory body (for the avoidance of doubt including local

    authorities) and/or

    1. any private sector entity active in the UK healthcare sector. Only NHS Supply Chain can order from the

    Framework Agreement and enter into contracts under it.

    Electronic ordering will be used and electronic invoicing will be accepted and electronic payment will be used.

    For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding the estimate indicated at II.2.1,…

  • Condition of participation
    no text published
    Minimum: Parent company or other guarantees may be required in certain circumstances. Further details will be in the tender documents.
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 130–150 points depending on the lot; most lots put it at 130 points.
  • “Instrument Decontamination and Accessories” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 25 suppliers, not a single contract.

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